Poll: 'Overwhelming' support for Obama among Arab Americans

Arab Americans remain steadfast in their support for Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, according to a recent survey by the Arab-American Institute which confirmed results of a poll conducted in May.
An institute poll in May showed that 39 percent of Arab American Democrats polled favored Obama and 36% favored Sen. Hillary Clinton. At the time, Obama was relatively unknown, and his supporters have since grown.
An informal survey of community activists and leaders conducted a month ago showed "overwhelming" support for Obama, according to James Zogby, president of the institute. The number of those favoring Obama was double that of all other candidates combined.
"Today the numbers are probably higher," said Zogby.
Reasons cited for their support of Obama over Democratic candidates Clinton and former senator John Edwards include his perspective on the Middle East, his outspoken concern for civil liberties - an issue of particular concern to Arab Americans - frustration with the current administration and the war in Iraq.
Zogby traces Arab American support for Obama to a speech he gave at the Democratic Convention in 2004, when he first burst onto the national radar.
"People remember that speech, and often say, 'I will never forget how he spoke about Arab Americans, saying that whenever someone insults or hurts Arab Americans, I am hurt too,'" said Zogby. "We were in the throes of the 9/11 backlash, and it was a remarkable speech in the middle of all that. People felt included, in a community that usually felt excluded. Here they were being treated, not only as part of the mainstream, but part of the mainstream people cared about."
