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:
There's clearly a correlation between those scary numbers and the education problem in many black communities around the US.
Yes the ones that strongly approve don't even know what he's done! They probably only watch mainstream TV and all the President has done on TV is lie. He promises one thing on TV and does the opposite. You hear the promise and believe it and don't find out whether he followed through on the promise without researching ....and those that strongly approve, probably don't know how to or aren't capable of research.
LOL..got something you wanna say there? Don't talk around it, cuz any half-wit can see it. Spill it out.
There's nothing to talk around, everyone knows that we have a huge education problem in this country. It's no big secrete that some of the most neglected and ignored school districts are in areas of high black populations. Look at high school graduation rates and compare blacks to other groups, it's clear that there is a problem and we need to fix it. We know for a fact that a large number of high school age blacks aren't finishing with a diploma and many have trouble with basic skills like reading and math. How can we expect people who have horrible educations to understand basic politics and form an opinion on who is doing a better job in office. Many of them saw a black man and that's all they needed to see, to them he's black and that's all that matters because they aren't educated enough to know what makes a good president.
The racism is ooozing out of this thread! Gotta love it.
How are you defining racist? Nobody has said anything derogatory about anyone's skin color that I have read.
Anyone that can read and does research to follow up on their elected officials that has lived in this country since the President was elected has seen and read with their own eyes that the President is a good talker of the talk but has yet to show that he can walk the walk. If anything thinks otherwise, they aren't paying attention. Their race has nothing to do with it.
