62 Percent Say Clinton Was Better President Than Obama
Only 20 percent say Obama is better
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.
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.
