Who would vote for Obama today?
As a fairly staunch conservative (though repubs have it all wrong regarding internet gambling and a few other things) I find Obama's apporval rating amazing. No, not that his approval rating has dropped to 39% but that it is that high.
Who are these 39% that believe he's doing a bang up job? If you are one of them, tell me why. I won't criticize but I cannot promise I won't be fascinated.
Not sure what an 'approval rating' means. I will definitely vote for Obama over any Republican, but I don't approve of the way he caves to Republican policies at every turn in the name of compromise.
Approval rating doesn't mean a whole lot...
Tea party is making it easy for him.... Congrats to them... I voted for McCain '08 because he was moderate republican, but the whack jobs that you guys are sending out this time will make me vote for the Kenyan.
If the choices are Perry or Bachman then I'd stick with Obama for another term. Hillary would win Democratic nomination in a landslide if she stepped into campaign.
We are indeed a polarized society. I have often contemplated writing an article called the Divided States of America and build the article around breaking the country in two with the lefties to move east of the Misssissippi and the righties to the west (yes, all the libs form Cali would have to move to Vermont).
I think we're so far apart on so much, that Congressional gridlock has simply becometoo paralyzing a force for any progress to be made.

Not so much a vote for Obama .. but a vote against the Republican candidate.
Exactly. Doesnt matter what his approval rating is if the Republicans throw Bachman or Paul out there, Obama would win easily.
Obama is in a position so far over his head its laughable. The only thing he's shown me so far is to prove the point that being the President of the US is harder than it looks.
No way I would ever vote for him. Rick Perry will be a 1000x better choice.

Can't vote for a guy who thinks the economy can be fixed with prayer. Put Bob Kraft in the White House. He gets shit done.
This.
Will be more than happy to vote straight Democrat ticket next election.
Does that mean that couples with one lefty and one righty have to get divorced?
Spot on.
every president since jfk has had lower approval ratings than obama.....
bush 25%
clinton 37%
bush sr 29%
reagan 35%
carter 28%
ford 37%
nixon 24%
johnson 35%
so what's the big deal? the only approval rating that matters is the final one.
Bush's Final Approval Rating: 22 Percent

Give the next president a senate and congress that contain a majority from his or her party and just get shit done. The stalling and filibuster isn't helping anyone. Worst case scenario is after term is done a new regime rolls in and makes wholesale changes, but at least we are doing something.
Government objectives should be on big things like focusing on just a few big things. One would be getting troops out of needless combat. We can be in Afghanistan forever and it won't make a difference. Just wasting time, money and lives. Better off backing India and let them deal with it. Put together an economic think tank with succesful individuals who haven't gotten wealthy from working for Goldman and Sachs at some point. They are the guys who have stolen the answers to the exam before it is given. I'm sure a group with Warren Buffett, Steve Jobs, Bob Kraft, Sheldon Adelson and others could be of help. Get defense budget and financial plans set and the rest will fall into place. Let states decide how they prefer to handle everyday shit like health insurance, education, gay marriage, abortion.

I didnt vote for the guy the first time and he still does not have my approval!
With that being said,
I do not agree with a lot of what he does but he is our President and I still repect him and would defend him.
That does not mean I will vote for the guy...
Michele Obama would vote for Obama today.
Afroamercano population?
How do Republicans respond to the fact that people with a statistically higher(on average) level of education than them are usually democrats?
No.
Who cares? The "higher education" includes history, literature, women's studies, English, etc, and doesn't exactly prove intelligence.
How many people do you know that are book smart but have no common sense? Those tend to be the Democrats
I wouldn't want a professor of quantum physics fixing my brakes.
I wouldn't want the guy fixing my brakes running my country.

what would you know about common sense?
you support ron paul, who opposes student loans, which without you wouldn't be able to afford school.
you also think bush wasn't sufficiently warned about 9/11 when in fact he was told al qaeda planned to hijack planes, fly them in to buildings and were closely observing buildings in nyc.
you are the epitome of neocon stupidity.

I like the fact that Paul is at least trying to change our obviously broken system. I don't know who I support yet because quite frankly, none of the options on either side look that great. I'm sick of almost all politicians.
Care to tell everyone again how the dot com boom and bust had no significance to the economy?
Edit- I've already explained that the FBI investigated the surveillance of NYC tip, and that it turned out to be 2 Yemeni tourists, so why do you keep saying that is relevant? Bush was obviously told that it checked out, so how was 2 tourists taking pictures a sign of what was to come?

You would be able to afford school without student loans. The price of college is so high because everyone can afford to go.

Dumbest shit ever posted. You go to a private financial institution and get your ass a student loan at the market rate instead of a taxpayer subsidized rate. Then you pay the loan back or get wages garnished instead of getting hardship extension after hardship extension from the government in order to screw the taxpayer out of money.

So what's your plan? If people who can't afford to go college don't go because of no student loans then would you hire a HS graduate to design a skyscraper or do a heart surgery?
What if the private financial institution decides you're not worth the risk or they don't like what your studying so they're not going to loan you the dough or they're going to charge you 20%? Still like it? The only people who might get student loans would be those whose parents are rich enough to co-sign.
No government student loans =/= no student loans
Didn't vote for him to begin with and would never vote for anyone that's not a Republican.
And with the government backing every loan, the cost of tuition will just continue skyrocketing, because schools know people will be able to get loans. Its a lose-lose
