Americans really, really trust Hollywood. They are, however, far more skeptical of Washington, D.C.
A new survey on the most trusted people in America finds actors taking the top three spots: Tom Hanks, Sandra Bullock and Denzel Washington. The first politician to appear on the list is former President Jimmy Carter, who comes in at number 24.
Carter, 88, often referred to as the most successful ex-president in American history, has earned bipartisan praise since leaving office for his work on behalf of various humanitarian causes.
During his successful 1976 presidential campaign, Carter won over a majority of American voters with his “Trust Me” campaign slogan.
The surveyed asked 1,000 participants who they trusted the most and was conducted by The Wagner Group for Readers Digest.
President Obama made the list as well but came in at number 65.
According to the list, Obama was edged out by none other than Adam Sandler, named the 64th most trusted person in America.
No other former president made the list, though Hillary Clinton, a potential 2016 candidate, came in at number 51....snip~
