Obama makes Bush look good, Carter bad

From the Gallup Poll: “Of the nine U.S. presidents who have served in the past 50 years, John F. Kennedy continues to earn the highest retrospective job approval rating from Americans, now 85%. Ronald Reagan ranks second, with 74%. While these presidents’ ratings are largely unchanged from 2006, Bill Clinton’s rating has improved, putting him in third place, while Jimmy Carter, at 52%, has dropped from third to sixth. Richard Nixon remains the lowest rated.”

From the Gallup Poll on January 14, 2009: “A new USA Today/Gallup poll, conducted Jan. 9-11, finds 34% of Americans approving of the overall job George W. Bush is doing as president and 61% disapproving. Those ratings are a shade better than what Bush has received for most of the past year, and may represent the kind of lame-duck approval bounce Gallup has seen for other presidents.”
Wow, so after 2 years of President Obama’s socialism, the public is seeing both Bush 43 and Carter in a new light.

Carter’s rating fell by 9 points.

Bush 43’s rose by 13.

Seeing is believing.

The public also realizes that three other ex-presidents also don’t look as bad compared to what we have now; Clinton, LBJ and Bush 41 are up by 8 points each.

Hope. Change. Come back to the White House, George Bush!
