Approval For President Obama

According to the Pew Research Center, the recent survey they conducted shows that 71% of voters that make under $30,000 each year really like and approve President Obama's actions concerning the economy. During the campaign he struck even with McCain seizing more voters that make $75,000 yearly than his previous Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry whom sunk under while losing most of those votes. Six percent of the voters making $200,000 voted for Obama. He gained all of the richest states in the election.

A recent poll by Allstate and National Journal presented Obama as quite approved as president by education personnel, the self-employed, and senior business management. Amongst the self-employed 58% approve, the educational personnel approve by 55%, and senior business manager approval rating is 53%.

The Gallup Poll shows that upon ending his initial one hundred days as President 65% of the U.S citizenry approve his work so far. The poll also found that 96% of African American, 85% of the Hispanics, and 57% of the Caucasians approve of his performance. It found there isn't a big gender gap as 62% of men and 67% of women think his work as the President thus far is approvable.

The Gallup Poll also calculates that the majority of young adults, Post-Grads, and Easterners give Obama a huge approval shot in the arm. Amongst the 18-29 year olds three-quarters are happy with his performance. The reasons that many younger people like him is that he is a younger President that they can relate to easier. Plus, he did grass roots campaigning aimed at the youth and encouraged them to join in. They liked his talk about change. He utilized Internet tools in his campaign like blogs, chat rooms, and YouTube videos.

Many people like him because he disagreed with the Iraq war. Many people like it because he wants to make the government be more accountable for its actions and more accessible to people. Many people of the Arabic ethnicity like him because of what he said during his speech at he 2004 Democratic Convention: "If there's an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process, that threatens my civil liberties."

It seems that President Obama is greatly approved of by many Americans from different racial heritages, by youth, and by more than half of the senior level business managers. This alone spans a large variety of people and backgrounds. But many in education and a lot of the self-employed folks like him quite a bit too.

All in all he has a high approval rating and more people in the U.S. like him than don't like him. Obama is basically a well-liked President.
