WestVirginiaRebel Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Breitbart: A new USA Today/Pew Research poll finds that President Barack Obama's core policy initiatives such as combating global warming and income inequality barely register as top concerns for most Americans. In the wake of historic midterm election losses for Democrats, Obama unveiled two major global warming initiatives and said he would make the issue a major theme of his final two years in office. However, according to the latest USA Today/Pew Research poll, just 1% of Americans cite environment/global warming as their top concern. Similarly, last year Obama hailed income inequality as "the defining challenge of our time." Yet in the most recent poll, just 2% of Americans called distribution of wealth/income inequality the top problem confronting Americans. The findings pose a daunting challenge for an unpopular president with an agenda seemingly out of step with the concerns of most Americans. Indeed, more than 1 in 3 Americans (34%) cited economic issues as the nation's top problem. As USA Today notes, Obama cannot "take credit for good economic news when so many Americans believe the country fundamentally has gotten off on the wrong track." ________ We are the 99 per cent?
