President Carter holds 61 percent positive job rating with 34 percent negative, as 64 percent view him as inspiring confidence in the White House. A survey of 1,625 adults shows broad faith in his stewardship despite mixed views on individual issues, especially in foreign policy where majorities back his positions.
A public survey shows 55 percent back Carter on criticizing Russia for dissident rights, 53 percent support withdrawing 40,000 U.S. troops from South Korea in 4 to 5 years, and 51 percent back his stance against West Germany aiding Brazil’s nuclear plant. Support wavers on South Africa, Brazil rights, and Rhodesia.
The ACLU says Carter shows some improvement over Ford on human rights and desegregation but faults his abortion stance, Pentagon and intelligence handling, privacy rights, and secrecy in security matters. It criticizes the Fourth Amendment interpretation and insufficient leadership for racial equality. Overall, a poor civil liberties record.
AFL CIO Secretary-Treasurer Jane Kirkland said Carter proved he is a big man able to change his mind when a strong case is presented. She cited his endorsement of a 35 cent per hour minimum wage raise and labor law reforms, plus oil shipment proposals, as proof he supports working people despite earlier resistance.
