Obama's approval rating

On cnn.com “Obama approval rating below 50 percent” from Washington, explains that President is approved by 48 percent of people in national survey by CNN/Opinion Research Corp. This is a drop of seven percent from last month and the biggest drop came from non-college educated white voters. This is most likely from unemployment and not from Obama’s new policy in Afghanistan. He is not the first president to have his approval rating dip below 50 percent in their first year as president; Reagan’s and Clinton’s also did too. I think these declines are reasonable because not everyone can like the policy’s he has established. What really matters is if in five years the results of his policies are beneficial.
