Obama's approval rating for handling the economy has also climbed, 52% approve in the new poll, compared with 46% who approved in the May survey. That's the first time approval for Obama's handling of the economy has topped 50% in CNN/ORC polling in nearly six years.

A majority also approve of the President's handling of race relations, an issue that has grown in prominence amid protests and riots following the deaths of several African-American men at the hands of police officers, and the racially motivated shooting of nine African-American churchgoers by a white man during a Bible study session in Charleston in mid-June. The poll finds 55% approve, while 42% disapprove, up from 50% who approved in the May survey.

But to sustain those numbers, the poll suggests Obama will need to overcome a growing sense that race relations are a serious problem and have worsened during his time in office.

Overall, 74% of Americans say racial discrimination against African-Americans in the U.S. is a very or somewhat serious problem, up from 57% saying so five years ago. Among African-Americans, 80% now describe this as a very serious issue, up from 42% five years ago.

What can I say...........he's a transformative president. I always knew he had it in him.
