Rasmussen poll showed that 36% of African American respondents gave the President a positive approval rating. In one year, the President’s African American approval rating increased by 17% in the Rasmussen poll.Wouldn't that then be a 112% increase? That is, if he went from 17% of black support to 36%?
BTW, the "African-American" nomenclature is stupid and assumes that every American black came from Africa.

Depends how one can parse the original statement.
1. Was the 17% ADDED to the year before 19% giving 36%??
2. or was the previous year 31%? (a 17% gain would be 5.27 more)
