I guess it's my turn to point out that through statistics, you only need a sample size of 1067 to survey a population of 340 million with a confidence level of 95% and a 3% margin of error. In general, you can survey a small number of people for even very large populations, and return useful results. This idea can be played with using any sample size calculator online.
It is also my duty to say that the adequacy of this sample size would be predicated on the sampled population being representative of the overall population. For online polls of this nature, it's likely but not a certainty that the sampled population is not representative.
