Recent Rasmussen Pollings

62% Consider Clinton Better President Than Obama

Voters still strongly believe Bill Clinton was a better president than Barack Obama.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 62% of Likely U.S. Voters think Clinton was a better president. Just 20% believe Obama is doing a better job than Clinton did when he was president from 1993 to 2001. Eighteen percent (18%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

These findings have changed little from September of last year when only 44% of voters felt Clinton and Obama had similar views on how to fix the economy. Most voters trusted Clinton’s economic judgment more than Obama’s and that of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

Sixty-nine percent (69%) of Republicans and 70% of voters not affiliated with either of the major parties pick Clinton over Obama when asked to choose between the two Democratic presidents. Among Democrats, Clinton’s the favorite, too, but by a much narrower 49% to 37% margin.

Overall views of Clinton have changed little over the last four years.
