Which Democrat demographic groups approve and which have tailed off, considerably, since he was elected.
"...while 75% of Black Democrats Strongly Approve of the job he's doing as president, only 40% of White Democrats share that level of enthusiasm. That gap is much bigger than it was when Obama first took office in January 2009. During his first week as president, he earned Strong Approval from 88% of Black Democrats and 72% of White Democrats. Among White Democratic men, the president now earns Strong Approval from just 33%. That figure is down from 70% during the president’s first week in office. From an ideological perspective, 60% of Liberal Democrats Strongly Approve of Obama’s performance. Only 14% of Conservative Democrats agree (down from 49% during Obama’s first week as president)."
To read which Democrats at least Somewhat Approve of the job President Obama is doing:
I just read that one on Rasmussen and it seems to me that the most racist people happen to not be white if the color of that man's skin means anything. Actually, I don't believe that most of the blacks that still approve of him do so because of his skin, but I could be wrong.

The racism is ooozing out of this thread! Gotta love it.
I don't think I am any more racist than you are but surely you can see some very possible racism in these numbers. I agree with the poster who says that many of that 88% probably don't really know what TheWon has done but it has nothing to do with his race, as far as I am concerned.
I voted against him but it surely wasn't because of his race. I hoped he would manage to do better than I thought he would and he sure disappointed me in that respect.

I agree. I hadn't expected him to take a landslide election and waste it on sucking up to the republicans. He had his opportunity to accomplish a great deal and blew it.
Maybe there is still time to get Morris Dees on the ballot for 2012. He has a suitable history and would not be such a disappointment as obama has been.

How much more socialism did he have to install to be satisfactory to you? It was that part of him that I feared and that I think he got too much of slapped on us.
