Obama's approval rating slips but blacks show steady support (VIDEO)

The "latest":http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/WSJ_NBCpoll121609.pdf NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows a 47 percent approval rating for President Barack Obama. The poll results are the lowest numbers for Obama and his administration to date. In addition, more than half of the Americans polled say the country is on the wrong track. A recent "Gallup Poll":http://www.gallup.com/poll/124484/obama-approval-slide-finds-whites-down-39.aspx found that President Obama's approval ratings have sharply declined among whites, while staying above 90 percent among blacks. The Grio went to Harlem to speak with some African-Americans about the Obama's latest approval ratings and if he will take a more proactive role in addressing black issues. **Follow theGrio's "Todd Johnson":http://www.thegrio.com/author/todd-johnson on Twitter at** "@rantoddj":http://www.twitter.com/rantoddj
