A new Gallup poll finds that President Barack Obama´s approval rating with working-class white Americans has fallen to just 27 percent, a record-low for his presidency. Among whites who´ve graduated college, Obama´s approval stands at 41%, also a new low in the Gallup poll. (Graph) Perhaps most troubling of all for Obama: Gallup´s data only extended to the end of October, well before the recent racially-charged riots broke out in Ferguson, Missouri, and protests across the country. "About two-thirds of adult whites have not graduated from college, making working-class whites a particularly important group politically because of its sheer size,"

My guess would be that if they polled "actually working" and those wishing to work but unemployed that the figure would be Obama, or better known as "Zero"
Maybe they finally realized that 0 hates Whites and wants all their money.
“The Democrat party will be composed of Blacks, Homosexuals and Radicals. But who will fund this party? Probably a few wealthy leftists, but they won’t be enough. As the Democrat party becomes majority Black, they places will push put their white radical leaders and take over. It is at that point that the Democrat party will cease to be a national party.”
Well stated, better than I can do. And yep, what you say is already the case in the South. Other than some districts draw specifically for blacks, the Dems are about finished here. They have virtually no white representatives anymore - no one wants to get near them. The Dems are lucky to get 25% of the white vote and are now at 11% in Mississippi, and while there are a lot of blacks in Mississippi, there are a lot more whites. It’s been a PURGE thanks both to Obama and also the Dems embracing things that are simply too much for whites, starting with gay marriage.
I understan what you’redescribing, but those same policies should have 100% of white guys voting Republican yet they don’t...
Still too high...
It’s damn close to 100%. Don’t forget, we’re talking 75-90% of whites. That includes feminists (they’re always white), gays (always white too, except for some on TV), college students and recent grads with student loans (usually white, we don’t lend to minorities, LOL), and single women that aren’t angry, cat-owning, feminists (all 4 of them).
If you just take straight white guys over 30, good luck finding a Democrat down here. Years ago I actually did find one - a gun owning married guy, with solid Texas roots. We talked and talked - I needed to understand him. Finally, I got the information I needed. Seems that his parents were both union types, so they hate “the man” and the Democrats are for the “little guys”, he told me. When I said they wanted his guns, he simply refused to believe that. That was roughly 16 years ago, it would be interesting to track him down and see if he’s come around.
It is definitely climbing (though I expect the publicly-employed white guys to continue voting Dem forever); I can’t believe it took so long after affirmative action became the law of the land. I still see plenty of complete political apathy in younger white males, though.
“...graduated college...”
Illiterate.
Idiocracy.
And the fools either paid or went into debt to the tune of $25,000 per year and (way) up to have any vestigial common sense excised and 'graduate' with that level of indoctrinated stupidity.
McCain and Romney both took a dive.
Either would have been a disaster. Neither was/is sincerely pro-life. They would have MANAGED the pro-lifers, the way all Republican presidents have. We had both houses of Congress and the WH under GWB. Where was the bill to remove abortion from the appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court?
Either would have continued the explosion in surveillance by the federal government. Either would have continued with open borders and the “religion of peace” treason.
Actually, it gives credence to the belief that the liberal professors in college do indeed influence (indoctrinate) young adults to drink the liberal Kool-Aid.
Do you mean the indoctrinated commies coming out of our colleges?
If so, I agree.
Mental illness? (And no, I am not joking). See my tagline, there are LOTS out there that view government as the savior for us all and wish to impose government on us by trampling our Constitutional rights.
I have one of those 27%’ers in my Scout troop...voted for the “one”, works for the DoD and still doesn’t believe that 0 is a “bad guy”.
And he confirms one of my favorite mottos...
“Just because you’re educated, doesn’t mean you’re smart. It just means you’re educated.”
“I can’t believe it took so long after affirmative action became the law of the land.”
Concur...it has been slow as molasses.
I think it just took this really horrible economy to show white men just how damaging affirmative action is for them; at a time when people are flocking to government employment as a stable job, white men can now see very clearly how many people are moved to the front of the line with clearly inferior qualifications. I’d imagine after a couple of years of unemployment they are looking into it (and reacting to it).
“I think it just took this really horrible economy to show white men just how damaging affirmative action is for them”
There’s definitely that. The majority of whites, now, did not live through FDR and especially JFK, at least as young adults, when most people form their political views. A lot, me included, did see Jimmy Carter, and got to contrast him with Reagan (no-brainer there). For a while with Bush/Clinton/Bush, you had almost the same product and I suspect that young people then did not solidify views. But now you have 8 years of a disaster worse than Jimmy Carter...and the young adults, and middle-aged adults (whites) are forming political positions that will be very, very, difficult for the Democrats to ever reverse.
I hope so; as a bloc they have potential. I barely remember Carter, but remember the PC era of BJ Clinton. It was the start of criminalizing white males and Judeo-Christianity; we had a pause under W, then went into overdrive under Barack Hussein Obama...
