With six years down and just two left in which to build a legacy, President Barack Obama has posted his lowest-ever average annual approval rating. A Gallup poll finds that Obama, in the one-year period between Jan. 20, 2014, and Monday, posted an approval average of just 42.6 percent.
During their sixth year in office, Presidents Dwight Eisenhower, Lyndon Johnson, and Richard Nixon showed their lowest approval rating as well, with the sixth-year approval rating of every president since 1945 averaging just 45.5 percent, Politico notes. President George W. Bush tapped out the lowest at 37.3 percent, while President Bill Clinton scored an average approval of 63.8 percent, just before the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke, Politico reports. Ronald Reagan, in his sixth year, averaged a 59.9 percent approval rating, Gallup reports.
Previously, Obama's lowest yearly average came during the third year of his presidency, 44.4 percent, and his current yearly average is below last year's average of 45.8 percent, Politico notes...

Unfortunately I believe this. The current generation of voters is so ignorant...Obama could kick their grandmothers and eat their children and they would still swear that he is doing it for the better of the country...
Let me guess ( without even reading the numbers).... It doesn’t fall below 37% <—— That has always been his bottom and he has never gotten pass that.
The parasites and left wing psychos will always love the smell of stale BO. He will never go lower.
...and the Jerry Collona ([Dem] Rep. Grijalva) of Arizona politics loved the SOTU nessage ad O’.
I guess that was part of the media 'softening up' of the public prior to the SOU, along with all of the stories about the disparity in income.
Too bad no one watched anyway.
Where did that bogus 50% approval go that even Fox was proclaiming last week??? Was that just window dressing for his one-man filibuster last night?
Obama worked hard to obstruct the U.S. oil and gas industry. Despite that, fracking has led to record production levels. The revenues (and reduced foreign expenditures) from oil and gas production have saved the U.S. economy. Naturally, Obama takes all credit for saving the economy.
I read somewhere that his approval rating is now at 51%. They think it’s probably because of low gas prices. It sure shows how shallow people are if this clown can jump 15 points in a month.
Blacks' Approval of President Obama Remains High (84%)
Also:
Today, I wager Barry Soetoro's approval among blacks still exceeds 80%.
The misleading title makes it sound as if his rating was lower than all other presidents, rather than just the lowest yet in Barry’s administration.
Fortunate you are than you believe that!
However you are correct on the current generation of voters. I think my MIL would be thanking him as she is led to being executed for being too old and useless. She’s lower 70’s now, creeping up on that magic number of 75....
OVER sample, TWERK the numbers 50% BS
42.6 is a large majority among the American people; 54 “Republican” senators is a hopeless minority.
“Shallow” may be too kind of an adjective here.
BO is holding steady at -3000% approval in my household. Same as the day he seized power.
Ya - I think he was the comeback kid....50%!!!
The lower Obuttwipe’s approval rating, the harder and faster the GOP-e licks his boots.
Yes, BOOTS.
