Obama et l'emploi: meilleur que Bush, moins bon que Clinton mais l'égal de Reagan?

Certains partisans du président américain croient qu'Obama ne reçoit pas tout le crédit qui lui revient. Au plan économique les nouvelles sont positives, mais Obama stagne sous la barre de 50% d'approbation malgré une récente amélioration. Une étude du Pew Research Center démontre qu'au seul chapitre de la création d'emploi, les résultats sont plus qu'intéressants. On présente ici l'évolution des perceptions.

 "The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center, conducted Jan. 7-11 among 1,504 adults, finds that Obama’s job approval has risen five points since December (42%). The president’s job rating changed very little over the course of 2014.

Obama is being helped by a steady improvement in public views of the nation’s economy. Currently, 27% say the economic conditions are excellent or good, up from 16% a year ago. Perhaps more important, almost twice as many expect the economy to be better than worse a year from now (31% vs. 17%).

For the first time in five years, more Americans say Obama’s economic policies have made conditions better (38%) than worse (28%); 30% say they have not had much of an effect. And Obama engenders more confidence on the economy than do the leaders of the new Republican majority in Congress."
