Presidential Popularity

The American Presidency Project lists the results of presidential popularity Gallup polls since 1941. Data compiled by Gerhard Peters.

Looking over the data, I was surprised in retrospect how consistent Clinton’s ratings were, how un-remarkable the changeover from Clinton to Bush was, the affect 9-11 had on Bush’s popularity compared to Pearl Harbor, and Bush and Obama’s near exact swap of approval and disapproval.

Bush Assails ‘Appeasement,’ Touching Off Storm

“Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have an obligation to call this what it is: the false comfort of appeasement.”

– George Bush

“I constantly reject this notion that any hint of strategies involving diplomacy are somehow soft or indicate surrender or means that you are not going to crack down on terrorism”

– Barack Obama

Anti-diplomatic, non-negotiation…
