Just over one-third (35%) of Likely U.S. Voters now think America's best days are in the future, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.
Fifty percent (50%) believe America’s best days are in the past, the highest finding since early December. Sixteen percent (16%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
The national survey of 1,000 Likely Voters was conducted on April 12-13, 2012 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.

Too bad we don't have an Reagan-esque (or Palin-esque) candidate running for the GOP.
Still Baraq should lose with numbers like this.
The ‘good ol’ days’ were good.
Still Baraq should lose with numbers like this.
We’re no longer in the America of that time.
Not only that but Obama might be punishment for America murdering their babies..
Extreme punishment may in store in his second term..
because republicans have chosen the inventor of Romney-care to run against the inventor Obama-care.. theres a choice for you.. Does America need to be punished?...

That would be helpful, but the deeper, more fundamental problem with America, and any projections concerning its future, is the existance of an electorate that would vote in an historically unprecedented, radical RaceMarxist to the office of President.
Our grandchildren and great grandchildren are going to hate us. Life is going to be tough for them.
Baraq? You mean Buttcrack.
“We’re no longer in the America of that time.”

You are exactly right.
The Communist have been hard at work for the last 30 years, now controlling education and the media.

As long as there are stories like the one below,
People line up for pre-paid debit cards that don't work
the likelihood of such a person being elected is unfortunately pretty good.

Good news, oh, the chariot's coming, Good news, the chariot's coming, And I don't want to be left behind. |
Well that’s true.
But they also elected Carter...
The only real question is, have we reached critical mass where the leaches out number the producers? Once that happens, there’s no going back.

What a bunch of Barbra Steisand!
Anyone who swallows this crap deserves to become a slave, a servant to the new world order.
CALL THEM OUT ON THEIR SH!T!!!!
Rasmussen ... from all I remember of your cr@p you lie and you suck!
“We`re no longer in the America of that time”
Sad but true. The belief that America has seen her best days used to be a catalyst for change at the top. Nowadays, liberals cheer at that idea America is in decline.
This decline has been going on for nearly 45 years and people are just now noticing it because Obama is in the White House? Reagan spoke about it but he was unable to halt it because as soon as he left office the deterioration accelerated in the mid 1990s. We went from the world’s largest creditor nation in 1980 to now being the world’s largest debtor. We excelled in just about every industry on the face of the earth, had the best education system and drew the best and brightest people from all over the Western world. Look at us now, even the population is changing. Compare the US to even 20 years ago and there seems to be little doubt we’re heading for the dustbin of history.
I must be getting old because every news article I read reminds me of something ;)
I was in eighth grade in 1976. Our overweight, highly pretentious, looking over the glasses, accented social studies teacher ‘polled’ us on this very topic. She instructed us to accept that the American Century was over and consider how we should behave in a world in which the US was just another player. She predicted this would be good for the world as democratic institutions like the UN would give a voice to all people.
Then Reagan was elected.
Immediately following this event, we have the Cuban missile crisis, Kennedy assassination, Great Society, Vietnam, the first oil crisis, fiat currency, Watergate, "malaise" of the late 70's, all the way down to Clinton's peccadillos in the 90's, and the Bamstercare.
Following WWII, the U.S. was high on its position as a world leader, and enjoyed a postwar economic boom. The space race began and reached a fever pitch with Glenn's orbit where (in my mind), we "caught up" to the Russians. America still felt really good about itself.
Following that, really bad things started happening that began to chip away at our esteem, until now we have "leaders" who believe that America is "nothing special". Sad.
Well gosh then, let’s send the rest of our industrial base and jobs, out of the country, quick!
“This decline has been going on for nearly 45 years and people are just now noticing it because Obama is in the White House? “
I also believe this to be true - but until recently, we never had leadership that was ACTIVELY working to promote it!
Nowadays, liberals cheer at that idea America is in decline.
They’ll change their tune when it hits them in the face.
They are truly the “Useful idiots”.
