Public polls show President Carter with a 61-34 job rating and 64-30 personal confidence score, higher than May. The survey notes broad trust in his overall stewardship despite cooler views on some issues, with foreign policy showing solid backing for multiple positions.
Poll finds majority backs Carter on criticizing Russia and troop withdrawal from South Korea but opposes or splits on several actions. Support ranges from 49 to 25 percent on sanctions and leadership removals, with 33 percent for Rhodesia policy and 35 to 34 percent on shoe tariffs. The public remains selective and unsure on foreign policy leadership.
The American Civil Liberties Union says Carter's first six months show gains over Ford on human rights, desegregation, and voting law liberalization. It faulted his abortion aid stance, privacy concerns, and limits on security and Fourth Amendment readings, while noting mixed progress overall.
AFL-CIO official Lane Kirkland told a Texas audience that President Carter proved he is a big man capable of changing his mind when presented with a strong case. He cited Carter's recent endorsement of a higher minimum wage and labor-law reforms, saying the president acts for working people despite opposition from business groups.
