Obama Job Approval Lowest Since Truman

The Washington Examiner says Barack Obama's job approval ranks 8th on a list of the last 10 presidents.

Below are the Gallup job approval rating for the last ten sitting presidents after 1,138 days in office:

Barack Obama: 45% approve
George W. Bush: 49% approve
Bill Clinton: 54% approve
George H. W. Bush: 41% approve
Ronald Reagan: 54% approve
Jimmy Carter: 52% approve
Richard Nixon: 56% approve
Lyndon Johnson: 47% approve
Dwight Eisenhower: 72% approve
Harry Truman: 39% approve

You can’t make it up: Obama ranks eighth out of the last ten presidents in job approval after serving three years in office. (Note: Kennedy and Ford also had higher approval ratings than Obama – but neither lasted 1,138 days in office.)
