March 19 - Although President George W. Bush has been traveling the
country touting a new plan to overhaul the Social Security system,
campaigning in 15 states over six weeks, the majority of Americans
remain unswayed, according to the latest NEWSWEEK poll. Only one-third
of all Americans (33 percent) approve of his proposal to create
investment accounts under Social Security, the poll found, while 59
percent disapprove. More Americans (44 percent) trust Congressional
Democrats with managing the 70-year-old program. The poll also found
that, with the exception of his handling of terrorism and homeland
security, his approval numbers are down across the board.
