In a major poll done by CBS News, Americans were asked the following:
How have Barack Obama's economic programs affected you personally?
The result has not changed since May when a similar poll was run. Only 13% of Americans think that Barack Obama's economic programs have helped them personally.
That's an interesting number, because 12% of Americans are African-American.
Funny that. Makes you wonder if Obama's economic programs are awful (just helping 13% of Americans) or just very specific (designed to help a particular 13% of Americans).
Or it would make you wonder that if you were the sort of person who is fixated on race issues, which, of course, I am not.
