ABC News "Nightline" Clinton Speech Poll, November 1995

This special topic poll sought respondents' views on the November 27, 1995, speech given by President Bill Clinton on the situation in Bosnia. Those queried were asked for their opinions on President Clinton's handling of the conflict, whether he had a clear policy towards Bosnia, and if the United States had vital interests at stake in Bosnia. Respondents were asked if they believed the President's assertion that the 20,000 United States troops committed to Bosnia as part of the international peace-keeping force would return within one year. Questions on the viability of the peace-keeping mission without United States involvement and the possibility of Congressional intervention to prevent troops from going to Bosnia were also posed. The results of the poll were announced on the ABC television program "Nightline." Demographic variables include sex and political party.
