Posted by | November 23, 2016 10:00 | Filed under: Good News Politics

The closer we get to the end of his term, the more popular he becomes.

President Barack Obama’s approval rating is at a seven-year high, according to a CNN/ORC national poll released Wednesday.

Obama enjoys a post-election approval rating of 57 percent, his highest mark since September 2009, when his approval rating sat at 58 percent.

The president also has a favorability rating of almost 60 percent, his highest since October 2009. Obama has a net favorability of +21 percent (59 percent favorable, 38 percent unfavorable), far outpacing Americans’ views of the Democratic (-15 percent) and Republican (-11 percent) parties.

    Did ya ever wonder why congress and senate has no term limits?

    But yet the president does?

    Do you have a feeling it has something to do with repubs?

        The first step in discrediting Roosevelt and the New Deal.

          I forgot to mention,
          and supreme court appointees are life time…
          They know how to stack the deck…when it suits them.

      How many times have you heard people say, “But there are term limits. They’re called elections.” Except it doesn’t work that way in practice. With the miserable turnout for non-presidential elections, a tiny minority of people keep sending the do-nothing congressmen back for life.

    The noise you are hearing is heads popping from the Alt-right!

    Way to start and end strong. He’s been the best President of my lifetime. It must be killing all the losers on the right. Hey McConnell, what happened to that making him a one-term President? You couldn’t even make him an unpopular one in two terms.

      It was one eight-year term.

        One great eight term. :)
