Free Fall

No American President in recent history has fallen so far so fast in the eyes of Americans. Jimmy Carter started with a 70 percent approval rating and it took 18 months for him to fall under the 50 percent mark. Even George W. Bush, the man who many consider the most unpopular President in modern times, stayed popular with a majority of Americans for three years before dropping into the nether land.

Obama's job approval dropped 20 points in eight months: a record free fall.
