Too bad Republicans aren't smart enough to nominate him; if they did, I would vote for him. Instead I'm probably going to have to hold my nose and vote for Hillary.
I left him out on purpose. I like the guy. I agree. He has a lot of common sense, but of course that makes him unelectable. I can never see myself voting for Hillary. I'll do a write in. Throw my vote away.

Goodbye Middle Class: 51 Percent Of All American Workers Make Less Than 30,000 Dollars A Year

There will probably be a Ga-Zillion dollar study to see if these 2 fact are related.
Wanted to point out that this was for individual workers, not family income.

My spouse makes less than $30K per year. I make more than $60k per year so according to that we are either in poverty or upper income depending on if you are counting individual or family income.

Fortunately or unfortunately (depending on how you look at it) most two parent families have two working adults so that does raise the income of the family.

On Obama, I will miss him terribly and would rate him favorably if polled. The people currently running for president are crappy and scary compared to him. I also voted for him both times and even though I don't agree with him on everything, I think he has done a good job and history will view him favorably as a result.

Obama is at 53% approval rating now and rising in a new AP poll. And actually his approval rating is higher than any presidential candidate including Bernie Sanders which is at 48%.

Of course Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are the laughable 26% approval rating. Which puts him right at W's low point for approval. Which was right around this time in his presidential term.

So much for all the predictions of Obama's demise. If you're a Trump or Cruz supporter remember that doctors are standing by... largely thanks to Obamacare.

Poll: Things to know about people's opinions on Barack Obama

Notice how everything in the last 7 1/2 yrs has been fixed or misrepresented? Are these doctors of foreign descent or American?
