That same poll had Hildabeast wining 2016 in a landslide. You are the junk science and chief islamist here in SI so not expecting anything other than junk from you. Now that the racist 0bama and his policies are history Black and Hispanic unemployment has been cut in half as well as food stamp usage cut to it lowest level in 7 years.

Deal with reality :

Now, nearly a year after his departure, his legacy has not withstood the whirlwind of the first openly capitalistic president since Ronald Reagan.

Obamacare -- with its promise of lower premiums and better care -- flaps in the wind. Less than 9 million people signed up for next year. This reflects the end of the Obama's order that every American buy health insurance or pay a fine.

By the way, many people had refused Obamacare and paid the fine.

Trump withdrew from the Trans-Pacific Partnership. No more NAFTAs.

Trump withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement. No more junk science.

Trump withdrew or delayed 1,579 Obama regulations. No more bureaucratic nightmares.

The economy took off. From the day after the election forward, the Dow is up 30 percent. Hence, pension plans across the country are 30 percent more secure today than they were on Election Day 2016.

Unemployment is at its lowest in this millennium. Black unemployment is at a record low -- less than half its peak under Obama. Hispanic unemployment also is at a record low.

The inequality gap between the richest and the poorest reached a record under Obama. With new employment opportunities come the means to bridge that gap.

Under Obama's unwatchful eyes, in two years the Islamic State grew from a JV squad to a real state that included Aleppo, Mosul and Raqqa. Aleppo alone had 4.6 million people.

Under Trump, the Islamic State shrank by 95%. Its operations have retreated to Afghanistan.

Trump's ability to show Obama's failure is Trump's biggest sin.

How come you skipped the next 2 sentences? Nothing partisan with that, is there?

Obama snuck past President Trump, who placed second with 14 percent after his first year in the White House. Pope Francis trailed a distant third at 3 percent, followed by a three-way tie for fourth place at 2 percent.
