An early look at Pres. Barack Obama's first 100 days







While some people call
Obama the Super President, as many democrats begin to toast Obama's 100 days, from all indications, President Barack Obama has used his first 100 days to build a foundation. The American people, tired of George W. Bush and the Republicans, feel the US is on the right course. This as some news outlets are passing judgment while others are reviewing the many promises that Barack Obama made and how his first 100 days stack up. For black folks, just like all Americans, we see rising hopes, and partisan politics.

There are still those rags who wonder Why Is President Obama So Frakkin' Popular?
writing pieces on why Obama doesn't care about yoo. There are even playa haters who want to say from out of country, Obama's sprint will now become a slog


Well, Obama is hearing none of it. The Obama administration highlights many accomplishments on the White House website, as Americans debate his first 100 days.

No one can debate that President Barack Obama has been in perpetual motion. Yet, there are some news outlets that report, Obama's first 100 days littered with broken promises.

My gut says, no one is listening to the noise at this point, as Obama job approval rating is above 60%. The fact of the matter is polls are showing that the public thinks highly of Obama He appears to be turning peril into possibility, well so says the Washington Post. Barack Obama's wife, Michelle Obama is riding high, you see, Michelle Obama is now more popular than Barack with a 79% approval rating. There are questions regarding Barack Obama's high approval ratings and will it last?

The fact is Obama has the highest approval rating in 20 years. All that said, in many ways, John King at CNN is right, Barack Obama's second 100 days will be the bigger test for Obama.
The bottom line is President Barack Obama at 100 Days has strong job approval and even higher personal ratings. Yes, Obama is more popular than his policies; Bad News for GOP

Check out some of the Key events in Obama's first 100 days.
