Frmr. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
By Paul Bedard, May 5, 2014, Townhall.com

Just over half the nation wants further investigation into the September 2012 terrorist killings of American diplomats in Benghazi, Libya, in part because an even larger percentage of the country does not believe that President Obama's team has told the full story about the simmering scandal.

Rasmussen Reports revealed in a new poll that 51 percent want the investigation to go forward. The House last week ordered up a special panel to investigate the killings of the U.S. ambassador and several others and how the administration handled the crisis.

Worse for Obama, Rasmussen found that 59 percent feel it is unlikely the administration has revealed all of the details of the episode. And 50 percent are not satisfied with the administration’s story they've heard.

While the polling firm's results displayed a partisan split, the fact that a majority want investigations into the pre-presidential election affair to go on isn't good news for the White House or Hillary Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time.

She hasn’t even announced her bid for president yet, but voters, by a margin of more than three to one, believe that an adoring media will favor Hillary Clinton over the eventual Republican presidential nominee in 2016.

A new Rasmussen Reports survey reveals that 41 percent of all voters believe reporters will “try to help her.” Only 13 percent said the media “try to help her Republican opponent.” A paltry 22 percent said the media would be “unbiased” in a Clinton race, and 24 percent were unsure.

Men, Republicans and conservatives expressed the highest level of confidence that the media would treat Clinton like any other candidate. Some 47 percent of men, 64 percent of Republicans and 68 percent of conservatives told Rasmussen that they expected the press to pitch in for Clinton.

Mar. 25, 2014, Rasmussen Reports
A federal judge last week upheld the right of states to require proof of citizenship before allowing someone to register to vote. Voters continue to overwhelmingly support such a requirement.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 78% of Likely U.S. Voters believe everyone should be required to prove his or her citizenship before being allowed to register to vote. That’s up from 71% a year ago. Just 19% oppose that requirement. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Twenty-nine percent (29%) believe laws that require proof of citizenship before allowing voter registration discriminate against such voters. But more than twice as many (61%) say such laws do not discriminate, up three points from 58% who felt that way in March of last year. Ten percent (10%) are undecided.
