Harvard University study finds 47% of 18-29 year old Americans support recall of Pres. Obama. 57% have no intention of signing up for ObamaCare

12/4/13, "Harvard: Students turn on Obama, want him recalled, reject Obamacare," Washington Examiner, Paul Bedard

"The Obama thrill is gone among America’s millennials aged 18-29 just a year after they helped the president win a second term.

A new and shocking poll from Harvard University's Institute of Politics released Wednesday found that younger Americans are so disgusted with President Obama, Congress and the troubled Obamacare system that 47 percent support recalling the president and just 29 percent are planning to sign up for health insurance.

"A critical factor in the election and reelection of Barack Obama, America's 18- to 29- year-olds now rate the president's job performance closer to that of Congress -- and at the lowest level since he took office in 2009," said Harvard Institute of Politics Director Trey Grayson.

How bad is it? Obama’s approval rating among millennials, many with big college loans and no job, is just 41 percent. Even young blacks are tiring of the president, with his approval rating among African-Americans dropping from 84 percent seven months ago to 75 percent today.

Harvard's poll is especially troubling for Obamacare, which needs millions of younger Americans involved for it to succeed financially. The poll found that 57 disapprove of Obamacare and that there is little interest in signing up.

Worse, by a margin of more than two-to-one, 44 percent of millennials believe that the quality of their care will get worse under the Affordable Care Act and 50 percent believe their cost of care will increase....

On the issue of recalling the president and Congress, 52 would recall all members of Congress and 47 percent would junk the president, though a nearly-equal 46 percent would not recall him."

The poll was conceived by Harvard students and began in 1999. Once a year they survey young adult views on politics and public service. The current study finds Democrat party identification among 18-24 year olds dropped off after April 2013.

Conceived by two Harvard undergraduate students during the winter of 1999, Harvard University’s Institute of Politics Survey of Young Americans’ Attitudes toward Politics and Public Service began in 2000 as a national survey of 18-to 24- year old college undergraduates. Over the last 13 years, this research project has grown in scope and mission, as we now analyze 18- to 29- year olds on a broad set of longitudinal and current events issues. - See more at: http://www.iop.harvard.edu/blog/iop-releases-new-fall-poll-5-key-findings-and-trends-millennial-viewpoints?utm_source=email&utm_medium=pressrelease&utm_campaign=Fall2013Survey#sthash.zH0I91mR.dpuf

Each semester, IOP Director of Polling John Della Volpe leads a study group of undergraduates who collaborate to write, design and analyze the survey. The following represent data and insight beginning in 2009, including five of the key findings from our latest survey, which was conducted from October 30 - November 11, 2013 of N=2,089 young adults between 18 and 29 years old.
