approximately four percent use steroids,
the same amount using crack, Harris
added.
"Maybe somebody out there should
be looking into the widespread use of
steroids," stated Harris.
Healthcare is another serious concern
for the public, according to Harris. Only
10 percent of the people believe the
health care system is in good shape
compared with 29 percent in Great
Britain and 56 percent in Canada. Harris
said 61 percent of the people would
prefer a national health care system as in
Canada, and he sees this number rising
in the 90s.
Harris views the role of a public
opinion analyst like that of a messenger.
"We figure out what the people are
trying to say and take it to the powers
that be," he said.
Hanis is best known for his survey
research on public affairs. Some of his
landmark achievements include a
nationwide survey of Congressional
ethics for the House Commission on
Administrative Review, a survey on how
to restore faith in government for the
Senate, and advances in election night
projections.
In addition, he served on the late John
F. Kennedy's strategy committee during
the 1960 presidential election campaign.
Besides work in politics, Harris has
been influential in the economic,
environmental, telecommunications, and
energy areas.
Harris has appeared on television as a
public opinion analyst, on National
Public Radio as a political analyst, and
in more than 170 newspapers as a
syndicated columnist. He has also
written four books.
