Economy is on track for best growth in 9 years. Credit goes to our great President Obama. To think that he did this with all the Republican obstructionism, is incredible. This man is indeed the greatest President we've ever had.
Obama economy has made the rich richer and the poor poorer. He has created more enslaved people,to the government . Which means more democratic voters
It is the "Curly Principle", in which politicians will seek, by any means, to expand thier constituency. Dems will seek policy and action which will increase the number of poor people, and thus democrat constituents.
It is not surprising that the high tax, high regulation, anti-business stance of the democrats impoverishes areas and creates more democrats. Further, bringing to the US a large number of uneducated, unskilled "immigrants" (illegals) creates more democrats.
Of course, such principles are directly opposed to the wishes of nearly every citizen ( no one wants to be poor). However, the policies are veiled as "helping" those in need, while actually putting a boot to their necks.
Libs, of course, will dismiss the Curly effect and reject it as "right wing blather", despite its creation by a liberal from Harvard.

Amazing the level of ignorance it takes, to even think, Obama is King of America.
Congress now controls 52% of the economy. The president is just a pen.
The economy tanked when Pelosi and Reid got the keys to the candy store. Had nothing to do with who is President. Just like now. It has nothing to do with the President. 2011 was the the end of uncertainty in business, with a split congress putting the brakes on destructive policy.

This is such an outdated argument. It isn't like poor people make up the most sizeable demographic of the Democratic voting block these days. How do you explain Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, South Carolina, Arkansas, and rural Georgia ALWAYS voting Red despite having a remarkably low income as compared to the rest of the nation? In fact, a stronger argument could be made to support the opposite is true.
Our voting base is made up primarily of members of academica, minorities, working class people (not poor people), LGBT people, women, members of organized labor, young people, and *gasp* those with an education which include a majority of professional scientists and medical students.

I support the president and all but you are bordering on creepy.

Well I DON'T support this president. However I DO agree with your assessment of the OP, and the analogy from the picture that you posted is spot on. The blind support and fawning over him by the OP as if he is some sort of god is a dangerous mindset. People should be careful what they wish for, as they may not like the end result.

So Democrats only 'win' in the postgraduate demographic and not with a big of majority as in the lower educated groups. But yes, the large majority of your party is lower educated, poorer people. That's simply the facts.

The economy has recovered in spite of Obummer not because of him!
