Blacks, Hispanics, Youth abandoning Obama
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | JULY 15, 2013 | bY PAUL BEDARD

Feeling let down by a president they once had high expectations for, blacks, Hispanics and younger voters are starting to give up on President Obama.

Pollster John Zogby told Secrets that his latest poll found a big drop in support for the president among the three key constituencies who feel that Obama hasn't delivered the results he promised in his reelection campaign. "These three groups all have high expectations and feel a sense of ownership because of their strong support," the pollster said. "He is losing some of the strength he once enjoyed among groups that have formed the nucleus of his coalition."

Consider the results from the latest Zogby Analytics poll of 919 likely voters taken July 12-13. While Obama won 61 percent of the youth vote in 2012, only 46 percent approve of his job as president. He won with 71 percent of Hispanics and 93 percent of African Americans, but now stands at 68 percent and 84 percent respectively.

Zogby said that Hispanics are nervous about immigration reform and want the president to do more to make good on his promise to grant amnesty to 11 million illegal immigrants. "While the White House and fellow Democrats prefer the president lay back and not rev up opposition by campaigning, Hispanics want him out there," said Zogby.

For blacks, said the pollster, "they thought he would be able to do so much more."

And younger voters are feeling the pain of higher interest rates on college loans and don't like the National Security Agency spying scandal. "For young people, the failure to stop the rise of student loan rates and the NSA revelations weigh in heavily," said Zogby.

Despite the drop in support among key groups, Zogby said that the president still holds "considerable juice," and stands in the latest poll at an evenly split 49 percent approval-49 percent disapproval.

Indeed he will. We say as much. And with, hopefully, some force.


Very good. Thanks for sharing.

“Indeed he will”-Meaning he’ll be like Hitler and Stalin or give us crumbs?

That he will try the Hitler/Stalin route.

There may be ways to get around it. Mark Levin may have the solution, but it’s going to take some determined work. We’re almost at land’s end, here.

Yeah, bad news for Obama is...just bad news for Obama. RINOs shouldn’t get too excited.

Well Hell, Obama arranged so kids can stay on their parents insurance till they’re twenty-six. But seriously, these slackers thought Obama was going to be giving them all checks in the mail for doing squat.

You’re right.

The Second Amendment is saving us right now.

As I said to the Dean of Students at PragerU the other day: America has become like jerusalem, and everyone wants it. Chiefly, the muslims. All the others are just catspaws for the ones who have been doing genocidal conquest for 1400 years.

Which means, of course, that we *must* beat back the enemy - and it is the enemy - in the rest of the civilized world.

Look at the verbiage describing why each group is annoyed with Obama and find each simply wanted him to be MORE of a big-government Marxist and deliver more of what they wanted for their respective interest group. So any delusions the GOP has of winning these groups over will dissipate quickly.

Super duper, but they’re over 8 months too late to anything about it.

America is about to give birth to the AIDS baby it conceived last November. Trayvon Obama will join it’s brother Mussolini Obama that was conceived in 2008 and born with passage of the fascist health care law.

"I expect that the DOJ is trying very hard to figure out how to eo a Civil Rights Charge but if they figure out that even a black federal jury with the required number of Spanish and black members will acquit then they will make a lot of noise and IRS will put him under permanent audit and DEA might raid his house or his parents’ house but they won’t double jeopardize him."

I expect that they will then leak his hidden location so one of their proxies can kill him, followed by an investigation that concludes that race played no role in the crime.

Rubes self-identify. Too bad you didn’t pay enough attention to Obama or you would’ve known that he’s a serial, pathological liar. Maybe you thought he wouldn’t lie to you, just those hated white, Christian, conservative Republicans.

“Blame the schools on their lack of education in political science. They know how to put on condoms, have sex, make babies and have abortions, but are totally ignorant how our government works.”.

While I agree much of our problems relate back to the schools, to the blacks, hispanics and youth of today it is not important how our country and government works, as long as they keep getting their “free chit”, they will overwhelmingly support the demodummies.

As long as the stupid and uninformed are allowed to vote, the socialists will always have their herd of cattle to keep them in power.

At first I was impressed that they realized Obama is what he is.

Then I read the article and realized it’s about “YOU HAVEN’T DONE ENOUGH FOR MEEEEEEEEE”

So screw ‘em.

You got what you voted for. A fraud, a liar, a wannabe dictator.

Enjoy it.
