Summary View help for Summary
This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Questions assessed Bill Clinton's presidency with regard to his handling of foreign policy, the economy, and the situation between the Serbs and Bosnians in the former Yugoslavia, and the fairness and potential impact of Clinton's economic plan. Opinion was also solicited regarding Hillary Clinton as chair of the health care reform commission, and possible United States responses to the fighting between the Serbs and Bosnians. Subsequent questions constituting the emphasis of the survey dealt with the eating habits, exercise habits, and travel/vacation plans of respondents. Background information on respondents includes marital status, parental status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, religious preference, education, age, race, Hispanic origin, family income, and sex.
