When a group of people stand out in public and protest against the President on a certain issue, that is your own public opinion. It's also grassroot lobbying in which you protest and hope it makes the official change their mind.

Take the "Don't ask, Don't tell law that was just revived, that law is a public policy, but what you voice what you believe in when it comes to that law, and if you stand up for that law, like a lot of people have, you're voicing your public opinion.

As soon as a public issue emerges there is usually a preliminary phase of discussion. The issue is defined and a hope is expressed for its solution. Later as a discussion continues those concerned express their own views on the issue and propose various and often divergent solutions through letters, petitions, memoranda etc.In the course of time we pass on the third stage when opinion begins to crystallize and people began to take sides.
