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. Standard topics included President Bill Clinton's handling of his job, foreign policy, and the economy. Respondents were also asked for their opinions of Hillary Clinton and her influence on the president's decisions. In addition, the issues of health care and the Whitewater deal were addressed in detail. Respondents were asked how much they worried about not finding good medical care and not having enough health insurance, whether they thought that the health care plan Clinton proposed would bring about the changes needed in the health care system, whether the plan was fair to people like them, and, if Clinton's plan was adopted, whether the quality of the health care they and their family received would improve. Questions on the Whitewater deal probed respondents' beliefs on how important an issue it was to the nation, whether President Clinton participated in a cover-up of the Whitewater situation, and whether Republicans in Congress criticized President Clinton about Whitewater because they cared about ethics, or because they were looking for political gain. Respondents were also asked for their opinions regarding which nation posed the greatest threat to world peace, and the degree to which they trusted Japan, Germany, Great Britain, China, and Russia. Background information on respondents includes voter registration status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious preference, and family income....
