The Bush presidency is more negatively received among Muslim Americans then the wider American community. According to the Pew Research Center’s study Muslims Americans: Middle Class and Mostly Mainstream, “Muslim Americans’ views of President Bush’s job performance are highly negative. Indeed, while the president’s overall job approval rating is low nationwide (35% in April 2007), Muslims are less than half as likely as the general public to say that they approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president (15%)….Negative evaluations of Bush among Muslim Americans continue to the present. Only 15 % of Muslims (currently) say that they approve of Bush’s performance in office; more than four times as many (69%) say that they disapprove of Bush’s job performance. Again, there are few demographic or ideological differences in views of Bush; even self-described conservatives disapprove of Bush’s job performance”
