Probably a small minority because as the quote I have as my signature signifies..its not hard to pursuade the public. I can give you a perfect example here in Canada based on the election we just had. Everyone started raising support for the conservatives because they were going to cut taxes. In the papers I was reading only small paragaphs questioned if it would work. Later when they were elected economist pointed out it would only benefit the rich in Canada. When people see something that looks like it will work they'll go along with it. The public - a large majority of it - is so easily pursuaded by just about anything. The media morphs public opinion.
