MostMost Americans Say Obama Can’t Manage Government Effectively

November 25, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.

WASHINGTON (UPI) — Only four in 10 Americans said they think President Obama can manage the Federal government effectively, a CNN poll released Monday indicated.
Fifty-three percent of Americans also said they do not believe Obama is honest and trustworthy, the first time that a clear majority in CNN polling expressed that view, results of the CNN-ORC International survey indicated.

Forty percent of Americans said Obama can manage the government effectively, down 12 percentage points from June and is the worst score Obama received among the nine personal characteristics rated in the new poll, CNN said.
“A lot of attention has focused on the president’s numbers on honesty in new polling the past three weeks, but it looks like the recent controversy over Obamacare has had a bigger impact on his status as an effective manager of the government, and that may be what is really driving the drop in Obama’s approval rating this fall,” CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said.

Poll results also indicated 56 percent said he is not a person they admire, 56 percent said he doesn’t agree with them on important issues and 56 said he does not inspire confidence.
Obama is still seen as someone who cares about ordinary Americans, is likable and has a vision for the country’s future, results showed.

Results are based on nationwide phone interviews with 843 adults conducted Nov. 18-20 for CNN by ORC International. The margin of error is 3.5 percentage points.


They should have taken the poll on UHH, Chit-Chat Forum; he would have much worse! (Even with a few dozen trolls who would have voted for him in a heart beat. )

It's just weird that they would remove the "body" from the event location, fly it to the waiting ship, clean and drape the "body" and bury it at sea in the dead of night, AND not release any of the numerous photos that were allegedly taken. SEAL Team Six, of course, is sworn to lifelong secrecy. Now, as with so much of Mr. Obama's "transparent" administration, it's all lost in a cloud of controversy. No wonder there are so many "conspiracy theories"! :roll:

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, nascar27!

Hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving as well. Thinking about how our government keeps information from the public I watched several programs on the J.F.K assassination. Thought it curious they wanted to move his body to Washington even though legally the city of Dallas had jurisdiction for the autopsy. The Secret Service drew their weapons at the hospital to get their way. On top of that the two physicians in Washington who performed the procedure had never done an autopsy before. Sure does make a citizen wonder. 8-)

So much of what the government does in the aftermath of a controversial event just promotes "conspiracy theories", and then they call people "right-wing nuts" when they entertain these theories. Could they have come up with a more ridiculous story following the Benghazi incident than the one about the Youtube video that had virtually NO views? And Eric Holder reading about Fast and Furious in the newspaper a year after-the-fact is equally unbelievable. So, they feed these theories and then criticize them. Interesting way of "running a railroad"!

Let's talk about President Obama's record... If a Republican president reduced massive job losses in the midst of the worst recession in nearly a century by more than 50% in his first 4 months in office; presided over 44 consecutive months of private-sector job growth creating nearly 8 million jobs; killed Osama bin Ladin; saw stock markets reach all-time highs; saved the American auto industry; increased domestic oil production to highs not seen since the late-90′s and championed the largest year-to-year deficit reductions since World War II, would your party not be calling him a hero and a legend?

The real poll number is the 9% who approve of the GOPTagger Congress!

You people just do not know what you are talking about!

That is why less then 30% of your fellow citizens approve of you!

The campaign to discredit this president is unprecedented.

Of course, he was re-elected which shows that at least 51% approved of his job. The president nationally won 65.9 million votes -- or 51.1 percent -- against Republican challenger Mitt Romney, who took 60.9 million votes and 47.2 percent of the total cast, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Obama is the first president to achieve the 51 percent mark in two elections since Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower, who did it in 1952 and 1956, and the first Democrat to do so since Franklin D. Roosevelt, who won four consecutive White House races. Roosevelt received 53.4 percent of the vote -- his lowest -- in his last race in 1944.

In short, most Americans believe you are full of horse puckey!
