...according to Gallup:
http://www.gallup.com/poll/124922/Presidential-Approval-Center.aspx
Gallup has been known to lowball Obama in the past when it comes to his approval rating (see the 2012 election).
I'm sure the real figure is closer to 85%.

(14,449 posts)If I was a Democrat in a heated race, I would bring Obama out to campaign with them. Some don't want too, but I think that is a big mistake. President Obama can bring out voters to vote for sure.

(8,361 posts)funny how that works. They don't have to poll 100% of the population to obtain statistically significant results.

(10,893 posts)that had his approval rating higher with self-described liberals than with self-described moderates. I was not expecting that at all after the things that I've read about him online.

The point is if you say you disapprove of Obama on the poll it will be automatically interpreted that you think he's a socialist commie Muslim pinko.
