Most Americans still think politics play a part in deciding the winners of Nobel Prizes, but one-in-three would rather win one than any other major award. Still, most wouldn't jump to read a book by a Nobel Prize winner.
Just 20% of American Adults believe politics does not play a part in the awarding of Nobel Prizes, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone poll. Fifty-one percent (51%) disagree and thinks politics is a behind-the-scenes factor. Twenty-nine percent (29%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

The survey of 1,000 Adults was conducted on October 9-10, 2013 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
