President Obama's job approval rating averaged 88% among blacks and 38% among whites in July, a 50-percentage-point difference that has been consistent in recent months but is much larger than in the initial months of the Obama presidency.

Gallup doing their part to keep the racial divide wide and broad in this nation.

[chesley]

Man, those whites must really be racist!!!

no other explanation is possible.

[TexasCajun]

Looks like a 12% drop in Black Support.

[swain_forkbeard]

A lot of people got hoodwinked by the hoodwinker-in-chief.

[Mr. K]

Can we stop asking them if they approve of him because he is black and just ask if they are communist or want socialism?

If they say “he ain’t no socialist” then they are just too stupid to have any substantive discussion anyway

[Monkey Face]

Who is conducting the polls? NAACP?

[NorthStarStateConservative]

The black part of me hates Obama as much as the white part of me. Does that make both parts of my heritage racist?

[donna]

By the time this is over black people will say Obama was white all along.

[WayneS]

88%.

Down from 98% a year ago.

[Niuhuru]

ONly if you’re a Republican.

[onyx]

Gallup, the concern troll poll.

Blacks and Whites Continue to Differ Sharply on Obama

And this will continue because they see an attack on Obama as an attack on their race...Obama has created and expanded that.

Can you imagine a Jewish candidate who said anyone who opposed him was an anti-Semite, or an Irish, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Japanese candidate doing the same?

This is what Obama has done and continues to encourage!

It is hard to imagine what kind of man could pull such a disgusting stunt, but this is what Obama has done!

[Tolsti2]

If true, it’s not Gallup’s fault that a certain 12% are 88% morons.

[kabar]

Their is no need for Gallup to keep the racial divide wide and broad. The Dems have done a good job of that already by Balkanizing this country along racial and ethnic lines. Obama received over 90% of the black vote and his approval ratings have been over 90% among blacks. And it is not limited to Obama. Check out the support of blacks for other black candidates. We have a Black caucus in Congress along with ones for Hispanics and Asians.

By the time this is over black people will say Obama was white all along.

That explains it...cracka blood.

[RU88]

Is it racist to support a politician because of the color of his/her skin? I would think this question desperately needs to be asked considering the 50% difference in the response between Whites and Blacks. This is a certainly a result of a combination of racial identity along with a general perception within the Black community that spending other people's money by way of redistributionist taxation is somehow a laudable goal.

[nhwingut]

Do you still disapprove of him?



Good. You're not racist then.

[manc]

after the election the bias media said that we now are past the racism and yet did not mention how over 95% if blacks voted for him and yet millions of blacks voted for the first time.

The majority of blacks voted for him based on color so who is racist?

I’ve asked blacks over the last year and a half if they still like obama and they all say yes.
When asked why they have no clue but know now not to say because he is not white.

It’s time for the black majority to wake up and know that this is not about color even if the bias media tries to make it so.
They are being used by the left for votes, to protest and use their anger which they have been taught to have by the public schools and liberal teachers

[Kakaze]

I could care less if he is black or white...........it’s the damn “pinko” center that is leading us to disaster.
