What's Keeping Obama's Approval Ratings Up?
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 09/02/2014 | IBD Staff

Posted on 09/03/2014 4:02:41 AM PDT by IBD editorial writer

Leadership: Despite the increasingly undeniable evidence of his failures across the board, President Obama's overall approval rating remains relatively high. Talk about the soft bigotry of low expectations.

The latest IBD/TIPP Poll finds that the public overwhelmingly gives Obama lousy grades on almost every aspect of his performance in the White House.

It’s painfully obvious. The MSM is manufacturing fake poll data on orders from the WH like they’ve always done. They paint the illusion. The idiots accept it as reality.

It's quite easy actually to figure this out.

Blacks make up about 15% of the electorate. And since 95% of them are very racist and tribal they will support him because he has a similar skin tone even if he were caught on tape smoking crack with a prostitute (remember Marion Berry?)

Hispanics which also make up about 15% of the electorate, have been convinced by decades of Democrat propaganda that they are a separate oppressed minority group like blacks and in their own self interest they must also vote for whoever has a D after there name or risk having the welfare gravy train stop. About 80% of Hispanics fall for this scam.

So between racist blacks and duped Hispanics that accounts for about 25-30% of Obama’s support.

The remaining 10-15% are simply just simply self proclaimed socialists and communists. This majority of these are rich whites that live along the coasts that are mainly motivated by guilt and fear. Guilt that they somehow don't deserve the success they've had, and fear that if they don't support socialist policies the poor will come for them like they did the rich during the French revolution.

That's it. That gives Obama or any black or dark skin toned Democrat a base of support in the 35-40% range.

Easy...

The number of stupid people continues to increase and thats why Hillary Clinton will be president.

America is fixing to get a big nasty wake up call that we as a nation may not be able to recover from.

Simple … his blind followers. They hate the right so much that it doesn’t matter what their guy does as long as that “D” is next to the name.

How about

“I’ve been so brainwashed by PC that I firmly believe that any disapproval of Obama, even my own, is racist.”

Modern journalism is nothing more that deciding what NOT to print if it damages the demo/socialist brand.

Add to that the fact that people are very reticent to admit they made a mistake.
