Polls: Hillary Clinton More Popular Than Obama

Democratic Presidential Candidates Meet For First DebateBy Staff Blogger

President Barack Obama was just inaugurated for his second consecutive term in office. His approval rating has gone up since the start of his second term. People generally seem to like him and his overall policies. However there is one politician that is slightly more popular. That politician would be none other than Hillary Clinton.

We all know Mrs. Clinton was the First Lady for eight years while her husband, Bill Clinton. served in office. Hillary served as the Secretary of State for President Obama, but most recently left the position. Mrs. Clinton showed a 61% favorability rating over Obama’s 51% rating as shown in a Quinnipiac University poll. The poll was taken over the telephone. 1,772 registered voters were questioned in the process. The poll has a margin of error that is plus or minus 2.3% points.

Clinton is rumored to be a 2016 Presidential candidate. If she were to win she would be the first ever female president. She tops a group comprised of Senator John Kerry, House Speaker John Boehner, Vice President Joe Biden, Senator Marco Rubio, and John Kerry. Kerry is now the Secretary of State, taking Clinton’s place.

When Bill Clinton served in office from 1992 to 2000 as President, Hillary was a very active First Lady, participating in many events, causes, and was very involved in politics herself. She put herself in the running for President in 2008 but dropped from the race before election time. It is said that she is thinking of running again for the 2016 election. She quit the Secretary of State position so that she could slow down a bit and take a step back, but many speculate it is most likely to focus on her campaign.

    Good for Hillary on the survey. But I am just concerned about his health in running for WH job in 2016. She looks tired as result of her hard work during the last 4 years. Everybody loves Hillary – it’s her health to be President that concerns me. She better takes the IMF job. She now knows which countries need financial help.

    OK, here we go, the Democratic party pushing Hilary to run for president in 2016!

    Since they already know that Blacks are like Lemmings, and will follow whoever they are told to follow.

    All they have to do is make some more impossible promises we will say she’s just like her husband, (forgetting all he could do was play the sax and screw the blacks, and we didn’t even know it happened, we loved the Clinton’s).

    I can hear it now Obama was unable to get all we need put into law, elect me, Hilary and I’ll take up where Obama left off I’ll get what we have worked so hard for!

    Hilary and Bill are now worth 100 million dollars, why do you think at the age of 70 she would want the job of president?

    Ego, and more money! Don’t be a Lemming, stop being so predicable! The Democratic party is and have been playing blacks as a chump! Why do you think our unemployment rate is at 16%, Because they don’t care a wit about you or I!

    The two parties do not control this nation. Money talks and politics walks. When it comes to the people both parties act like Marie Antoinette. In the end they always say “Let them eat cake.”
    The people have become an inconvenience to power and wealth. This is a global phenomenon. Regime change is going to be applied here. The regime that the power elites want to overthrow is rule by The People.

    I respectfully disagree. Although I like Hillary Clinton, I do not hold more admiration for her than Pres. Obama, neither do I feel she is more popular. She is just more familiar. I particularly would probably have a problem working directly under her regime…a Scorpio politician…naw, I’ll pass. I would have to wonder if she would seek revenge if I made a mistake or crossed her.
