If I thought he were breaking the law, I would be upset.

I disagree with the premise of your statements. Kind of like the anecdote of the lawyer saying "have you stopped beating your wife yet?".
I base my opinion on polls I've read. It all depends on how the question is asked. Some have asked questions something like "should the President be permitted to authorize spying on American citizens without a warrant?" and the response is that only 35-40% agree. If the question is phrased somehting like "In matters of national security, should the Presaident be permitted to authorize wiretaps without judicial warrants?", the response is around 60-65% agree.
