Obama approval hits 60% as end of term approaches

Obama and the first lady tour an old slave house on Senegal's Goree Island on June 27, 2013. It was part of a three-nation tour in Africa. "For an African-American -- and an African-American President -- to be able to visit this site, I think (it) gives me even greater motivation in terms of the defense of human rights around the world," Obama said.

Obama took office several months after a massive stock market crash and amid a crisis in the nation's housing market, and at a time when international impressions of the United States were at a low point, according to polls. At the time of his inauguration, 72% expected there to be at least some improvement in race relations following his election as the first black president.

In the new poll, Obama also scores net-positive approval ratings for his work on education, policies toward gays and lesbians, environmental policy and climate change, all areas where policies shifted sharply during Obama's tenure.

Majorities disapprove, however, of Obama's work on gun policy, an issue he embraced following the death of 20 children and six adults in a shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, and his handling of ISIS, which rose to prominence during his time in office. And the public is mixed on his handling of two top domestic issues -- illegal immigration and health care policy -- and two national security concerns -- terrorism and cybersecurity.

All told, Obama's time comes to an end with 50% saying things in the country are generally going well, 50% that they're going poorly. That's a sharp increase compared with the start of Obama's time in office. In early 2009, in the midst of an economic crisis, just 21% said things in the country were heading the right way, that rose to 49% by the time of Obama's second inauguration, and peaked at 54% just before last year's election.

Similarly, there's been a sharp turnaround in impressions of the economy under Obama. Now, 57% say economic conditions are good, compared with 13% in January 2009. Much of that improvement in opinions on the economy came during Obama's second term. In December, 2012, just after his re-election, that figure had risen to just 26%.

Looking ahead, the public is split on whether the country will be better (47%) or worse off (48%) four years from now, but they are more apt to see improvement on the horizon for the economy, 62% say that will be better a year from today. Asked about their own financial situation, 40% expect it to improve in the next year, 48% say it'll be the same and 11% that it'll get worse in the first year of Trump's presidency.

Obama's favorability rating stands at 63%, among the best for recent presidents and his highest since summer 2009. First lady Michelle Obama scores a 69% favorability rating, her highest mark since 2012, matching her favorability rating in January 2009 just ahead of Obama's first inauguration.

The CNN/ORC Poll was conducted by telephone January 12-15 among a random national sample of 1,000 adults. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points; it is higher for subgroups.

polls? I know it is something you people do not want to believe so you will go the rest of your lives believing polls that say what you want them to and no others. Not even going down that road.....Obama did great and those are his numbers but I understand you people tried to strip him of his birthplace, his law degree, going to Harvard, being a professor, even creating jobs worth a damn....you all destroyed Hillary with a smear campaign....plus women are jealous as hell of each other....she was smarter than most, graduated from Yale, was a Senator, SOS and stayed with her husband while these divorced beaches married POS to begin with..

So that is Obama's legacy, just see if Trump can get out of his 40% zone.

You know, there was going to be an attempt at sympathy but you conservatives really deserved every second of misery that Obama brought you. Me, I'm going to look to have some fun with Trump. I mean, I might as well right! He is unique and he paints you conservatives for what you are so damn well. This is probably the best twofer I could have hoped for and if nothing else the next 4 years will be entertaining as hell...

Cheers....

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Fifty-eight percent of Americans view President Barack Obama favorably as his second term nears its end. The latest figure, along with the 61% and 62% favorable ratings Obama received in the weeks after the 2016 election, is one of the president's highest marks since the "honeymoon" period during his first year in office
