Like Hillary Clinton, Obama got a bump from the Democratic National Convention; after the Republican convention, he was only at 50 percent. You can see it in Fox News's most recent poll, which has Obama's approval rating at 52 percent — the highest Fox has found since 2013. In CNN-ORC's poll from this week, Obama's approval rating is at 54 percent, the highest he has seen in his second term. The silent majority of Americans think that President Obama is doing a good job. Whatever the cause, Obama's approval is good news for Hillary Clinton.
