Though I'm by no means a real fan of Obama, I can't really agree with that last part. It's hard to beat the likes of Andrew Johnson and James Buchanan, among some others. But I digress.
It's not surprising news, to me. I think most people disapprove with his domestic policy because it seems we live under the impression that a president has very much to do with it. One could argue Obama has used the executive order to affect domestic policy, and I'm sure that contributed to this disapproval, but even so, not a whole lot going on there for which Congress shouldn't take at least part of the blame as well. As for foreign policy, the problems in Syria, Iraq, Ukraine, and Israel/Gaza all going on at once sure doesn't do him any favors. While I can appreciate his attempt to be cautious with his foreign policy, it's as if he has been a step behind a lot of the time, and his willingness to be aggressive, if necessary, seems a bit cloudy at times. This is my personal gripe with him more than anything. I don't think he's really the best foreign affairs guy. He steps on my academic territory there, haha.
But yeah, a lot of people are certainly fed up. And I suppose I could count myself among them. Didn't vote for him. Not a big fan.
Can we get a classical realist on the 2016 ballot please?
