Young Americans Approve Obama, But Not His Policies

Young Americans, people aged 18 to 29, were surveyed about whether or not the approved of Obama and whether or not the agreed with his policies. Acoording to these results, Young American still aprrove of Obama but not as much, and they, like similars polls open to every age, do not agree with heis policies. Young people played a critical role in Obama winning the 2008 election, so losing their support is key to Obama possibly being reelected in 2012, if he chooses to run again. 55% said they would still vote for him again if he ran again in 2012 while 30% said maybe. Their top concerns were the job market, 48%, health care, 21%, and the Iraq war, 10%.

I believe that Obama is doing an all right job at best. He did decide to hop into the presidency at a pretty bad time with the economy failing an all. I don't think that he's following through with everything he promised when he was doing his campaign and that's irrating me and apparently other people too. Young people are so concerned about the economy because we are the ones who will people joining the workforce soon, if we have not already. Health care is an issue too because we will probably be paying for the baby boomers for a good half of our lives. We are mostly concerned about the problems that are going to directly going to affect us. He should worry about the future too, because we are, we have to live in it.
