Easy-8, it't not so much that 80% of the colonists opposed the Revolutionary War, it's more like at the beginning only 20% whole heartedly supported it, an equal number opposed the revolution, and the other 60% were caught in the middle and they really just wanted to go on living as they had, however support for the war grew with every victory for the Americans. Although I would like to think that 80% openly opposed the war, it only improves Washington's resume as the best commander in history and the greatest American president ever.
