Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American Commonwealth, Vol. 3 of 3 In no country is public opinion so powerful as in the United States: in no country can it be so well studied. Before I proceed to describe how it works upon the government of the nation and the States, it may be proper to consider briefly how it is formed, and what is the nature of the influence which it everywhere exercises upon government. What do we mean by public opinion? The difficulties which occur in discussing its action mostly arise from confounding opinion itself with the organs whence people try to gather it, and from using the term, sometimes to denote everybody´s views, - that is, the aggregate of all that is thought and said on a subject, - sometimes merely the views of the majority, the particular type of thought and speech which prevails over other types. The simplest form in which public opinion presents itself is when a sentiment spontaneously rises in the mind and flows from the lips of the average man upon his seeing or hearing something done or said.
