U.S. President Barack Obama's approval ratings are down across the board, with everyone from liberals to moderates to independents. Clearly, conservatives would not embrace his ideals, as they view them as flawed. 

However, according to a recently released Gallup poll, over the last year, Obama's approval ratings have fallen significantly, down among independents, from 48% to 36%. This cannot be good.

It's a shame, really. The Judiciary Report had such high hopes for Obama, as he swept to victory on the platform of being a virtuous person.  All he had to do was keep his promises and not overspend, but he has done the exact opposite.
