47% of Likely Voters Believe President Obama has Driven Races Apart
his is a SHOCKING poll! You’ll notice that a majority of black Americans support Barack Obama, and feel he has not divided our country on racial grounds.
Okay, so it’s not exactly shocking (more like spot-on), but it’s kind of ironic, no?
From NewsMax:
Nearly half of Americans say that President Barack Obama has caused further division among racial groups in the United States, according to a new Rasmussen Reports poll released Friday.
Forty-seven percent of 1,000 likely voters surveyed on Monday and Tuesday said that Obama, the nation’s first African-American president, has driven the races further apart.
That compared with only 20 percent who said that Obama, who was first elected in 2008, has brought the races closer together. In addition, 27 percent said the president’s words and actions have had no major impact either way.
The Rasmussen survey has a margin of error of 3 percent.
In other findings, 44 percent of black voters feel Obama has brought America together, versus only 16 percent of whites.
And 54 percent of white voters believe Obama has driven the races further apart, compared with only 21 percent of African Americans.
Only 47%?
I guess the other 53% feel he’s done a swell job?
Sure, you need at least 2,000 people to get a more accurate number, but we’re talking about nearly one in two people feel this guy has made race relations worse in America.
One in two!
When the first black President of the United States takes to the podium to discuss the deaths of Freddie Gray, Michael Brown, and Trayvon Martin, while ignoring the deaths of Kate Steinle and white police officers nationwide, he’s sending a message.
Obama might not be smart, but he’s no dummy.
