President Barack Obamas approval rating has fallen back to its all-time low among blacks, dropping below 80 percent for only the second time in his presidency, according to Gallup.
In the week of Jan. 16-22, 2012--a period that began with the celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day--Obamas approval among blacks dropped 8 points, from 87 percent to 79 percent. The presidents approval among blacks had previously dropped as low as 79 percent in the week of Oct. 10-16, 2011, according to Gallup.
Obamas highest approval among blacks was 96 percent, a level he achieved in five different weeks of 2009.
Obamas overall approval rating in the week of Jan. 16-22 was 45 percent, said Gallup.
That’s racist. On the other hand, maybe there’s something else they dislike about the half-frikken American.
The Black community has historically been plagued by "kingfishers," neighborhood con artists who prey on their friends and the black community in general. Obama is just another Kingfisher, and some Blacks may be starting to get it.
Or would that be considered too racist????????
Bur come November he will still get 99.99999% of their vote.
Just imagine what will happen when they see the birth certificate:
Race = Caucasian.
It should be 0.8 percent approval for the Community Organizer.
Until that happens, I will give the black voting block (as a whole) the same respect that the OJ Simpson murder trial jury deserves - zero.
I may have to disagree. Blacks will still vote for him in large numbers as they are driven by “whitey is outta get me” syndrome. One of my best bud works for Worksource and you won’t believe the obama shirts they wear at the county welfare office right across his office where blacks count for 70& of the recipients. I’ve seen it countless times.
Yeah, 99% of these hopeless fools will still vote for their democrat party slavemasters, including Obama.
Not a chance in hell for most blacks, I am afraid. I anticipate the Hispanics to soar past them in the socio-economic economic scale any day now.
Look for some ‘covert’ photos of Gingrich in blackface to appear in the tabloid press.
Only folks like Castro get these approval ratings....
Rush has converted one...last week I think
So, uh, roughly 4 out of 5 blacks are still chumps?
Disappointing. Not surprising. But disappointing.
It’s truely amazing that so many blacks support Obama when he keeps shrinking the opportunity for jobs and so many are out of work. They must be products of pub-lick school indoctrination.
I don’t care anymore. They wanted skin color over character and beliefs. Well, they have it.
Problem is, he’s jus’ Whitey in black skin, right? Who here grew up going to very exclusive White prep schools, lived internationally, lived in Hawaii, got into Harvard somehow, got into Harvard Law School somehow, was made the top guy at the Harvard Law Review without ever having to write anything....and no legal briefs, client base, etc., etc., etc.
He’s one jive street thug who is as likely a Crip or Blood off the streets of Riyad or Malaysia or Nairobi as anything else. We don’t know jack about him. Those who do are likely dead or soon to be.
The illegitimacy rate among US blacks is well north of 70%.
That statistic alone is strong evidence that most of them will continue to be doomed to government dependency.
Naaaw. At least 107%. There were more votes cast in Philadelphia in 2008 then there were living human beings in Philadelphia in 2008.
I agree that the percentage of the black vote that Obama receives won’t change despite this latest polling data. However, the turnout will likely be impacted negatively (from his perspective).
