Here's One Poll Democrat Fake News Doesn't Want You To See...

Thanks to waterboarding OBL is dead.

The parrots can't even tell us what Obama's legacy is.

 

[easyt65]

When you see the actual statistics that show Obama ranks as the 3rd worst in average approval rating among modern Presidents AND see the latest statistics of how Obama had the worst record in Supreme Court cases among modern Presidents, AND see other similar statistics in other categories you start to realize all the liberal declarations of how awesome Obama was is more 'puffery' and propaganda - more 'attempt to convince' than fact.

When considering the approval rating, average is meaningless. Its vector is FAR more telling.

Just because you think that Obama was a crappy president (and I would agree) does not mean that you should resort to grasping for straws to find something on him.

His popularity has no actual connection on weather or not he was a good president. In fact, public opinion on the government is almost pointless at this point - the public seems to have no idea what the government does or how it works:
Study: Americans Don't Know Much About History

One very sad highlight: "The study finds that only half of U.S. adults can name all three branches of government"

That is pathetic.

That is the federal government in charge of our public education system.

Who gives a shit about average, during term, popularity?

It is how history judges your time in office after the fact that really matters.

Lincoln was pretty widely hated and ridiculed while in office, but historically he became considered one of the top, if not the top president.

Views of President Lincoln, 1861

It's about history?
What's Obama's legacy?

1. You can keep your doctor.
2. $2,500 a year savings in healthcare costs.
3. We did not pay a ransom to Iran.
4. This deal will keep Iran from obtains nuclear weapons.
5. Golfing during major crisis situations.
6. Dividing America to historical level tensions.
7. Starting wars with two sovereign nations without Congressional approval that posed no threat to US
8. Letting ISIS start and mature into an international terrorist group.
9. Routine Islamic terrorist attacks in America under his watch.
10. Alienating all of our traditional allies.
11. Losing Iraq and Afghanistan after he declared victory.
12. The spiking of major crimes under his watch.
13. The jobless and wage falling recovery that is longest in history.
14. Forcing girls to accept men into their school bathrooms and showers.
15. Inability to state who is conducting terrorism.
16. Using the IRS as a political weapon.
17. Alepo
18. Race relations.

Excuse while I completely ignore your...umm...slightly bias take on Obama's legacy.

Feel free to chime in any time and let us know what the Obama legacy will be most remembered for.

Well for starters SOMEWHERE in your carefully blocked off memory there must be a placeholder for the biggest recession in modern history that Obama inherited, stimulative, expansionary policies his administration took to counter it and stable recovery and growth that followed.

He was also the first president to succeed in passing a major healthcare reform and even though ultimately more time is needed for history to write the final word on it, it certainly succeeded in cutting uninsured rate in this country by almost half, accelerate healthcare modernization and moderately slow the growth of healthcare spending. It also paved the way for further reforms.

As President Obama left the White House, the mainstream press was falling over itself proclaiming how popular he was.

"Obama leaving office on a very high note," was a typical headline.

Yet despite the media's fixation with polls, the press completely buried one of the more newsworthy poll findings — a Gallup report that came out last Friday, which took a final look at the President Obama's popularity over his eight years in office.

That poll found that Obama's overall average approval rating was a dismal 47.9%.

Only three presidents scored worse than Obama since Gallup started doing these surveys in 1945: never-elected Gerald Ford (47.2%), one-termer Jimmy Carter (45.4%), and Harry Truman (45.4%).

Obama even did worse overall than Richard Nixon, whose average approval was 49%, and was less popular overall than George W. Bush, who got an average 49.4%...

Here's One Poll The Press Doesn't Want You To See

Didn't take long for the we-don't-believe-the-polls people to start posting polls again.

You lose. You don't get to use polls anymore.

From your own citation:

• Only Truman, Ford, Carter had lower averages as president
• Final job approval rating of 59% among the highest for presidents
• Obama ratings avoided extreme highs, lows

Despite subpar approval ratings for much of his presidency, Obama finished strong. His final job approval rating, based on Jan. 17-19 Gallup Daily tracking, was 59%. Only Clinton (66%) and Reagan (63%) had higher scores in Gallup's last measurement of their approval ratings, while Eisenhower (59%) and Kennedy (58%) had similar final ratings.

Thanks for the opportunity to remember how President Obama finished as one of the most popular Presidents in history.

Clearly, you aren't getting this. The rankings show overall average ratings for entire Presidencies.

Clearly, you don't want anyone to read the Gallup article you cited- from your citation:

• Only Truman, Ford, Carter had lower averages as president
• Final job approval rating of 59% among the highest for presidents
• Obama ratings avoided extreme highs, lows

His final job approval rating, based on Jan. 17-19 Gallup Daily tracking, was 59%. Only Clinton (66%) and Reagan (63%) had higher scores in Gallup's last measurement of their approval ratings......

Oh, now you're just being a petulant child. The poll depicts overall average approval ratings throughout entire Presidencies. But you know that. You're just choosing to be a a typical Snowflake wanka.

Final approval polls tend to represent people's overall judgment of a president. So Clinton wins, Obama in third.

Funny. Investor's Business Daily is as biased as Rasmussen. Give me a break. Peddle your fake news somewhere else.

Trump's Gallup approval average is at 45%.

Yet every poll throughout the Obama regime said Americans thought the country was headed in the wrong direction. So why was 0bama himself popular? Because the entire left and many in the middle liked the guy personally, but the middle and the right did not like what he was doing. That was evident by the fact that the Democrats lost everything during his administration. Now, they have virtually no power at all.

Keep track of these Trumptards that selectively post polls now, after Trumptopia declared all polls bogus.

Then we can throw them back at them the next time they reject the validity of a poll they don't like.

It's coming from the pollster that had Romney winning in 2012. It embarrassed them so much they quit doing presidential election polls.
