His approval rating is directly related to the price of gasoline and the job market.
Eighty percent of the voters don't know a single name of member of the surpreme court. They can tell you the price of gasoline and what their job prospects are. People who are concerned with issues always thing most people are. only a handful care about any of the issues that don't directly effect their lives. Prices, jobs and earnings are what determine presidential approval ratings.
If the price of gasoline drops Bush's approval rating will rise.. if the economy stays good his approval rating will rise.
It's the economy, Stupid!!! It always is.
I saw a poll once that 20% of the people didn't even know the name of the president. 50% of the people don't want anything to do with politics and think it an inbred Washington mentality. Many think that Government is like the Mafia, promises protection but takes your money.
EXACTLY!
