United States presidential approval rating
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

<30%
In the United States, presidential job approval ratings were introduced by George Gallup in the late 1930s (probably 1937) to gauge public support for the President of the United States during his term. An approval rating is a percentage determined by a polling which indicates the percentage of respondents to an opinion poll who approve of a particular person or program. Typically, an approval rating is given to a political figure based on responses to a poll in which a sample of people are asked whether they approve or disapprove of that particular political figure. A typical question might ask:
Do you approve or disapprove of the way [Donald Trump] is handling his job as president?[1]
Like most surveys that predict public opinion, the approval rating is subjective. Many unscientific approval rating systems exist that skew popular opinion. However, the approval rating is generally accepted as a statistically valid indicator of the comparative changes in the popular United States mood regarding a president.

Telephone number[edit]
The telephone number, 678-999-8212, given in the song, if dialed from the United States, previously connected to a message system for the artist; the number now belongs to an unknown commercial advertiser in Georgia. An unsuspecting family in the United Kingdom found themselves inundated with calls from fans there who dialed the number but mistyped the international dialing code prefix for the United States (001), instead typing "016", which is the prefix for numbers in Greater Manchester, England, where the family reside.[23]
