Do you see Obama as a uniter or a divider?
There have been claims from some mainstream as well as controversial quarters about him being a divider and using race-card for political agenda.

Definitely a divider and his division has lead to the raise of another divider called Trump on the opposite side.

I don't see Obama worse than any other modern president. 2nd verse same as the first.
And I think it is rather ironic that the racist Zimmerman would call Obama a racist.
OOPS- just opened another can of worms. ;)

Ok, point noted.
But how would you answer the above question?
If you believe Obama is just like Bush who was just like Clinton who was just like Bush Sr...etc, you still should be able to express an opinion by using this equation in your observation.
Irony you noted is at par with one noted here:

There certainly seemed to be more hatred of this president than other presidents.

There is? More hatred of him than Hoover, for example? More than LBJ? More than Nixon?
I don't suppose you could dig up some polls that quantify that?

Early on when he received Nobel Prize, he was not disliked as much but lately it is getting worse and even his pastor of 20 years has openly called him a b*****'s puppet.

Only if you count people today (and their story-book conceptions of previous presidents). But if you count people in their own times (and discount post hoc hagiographies), then it would be difficult to credit the notion that Obama (or any other president) has been more hated than Abraham Lincoln ...

His approval ratings have been remarkably steady- no major swings in it. Perhaps because his entire presidency has been unremarkable- no significant events like a 9/11 or major crises. The major wars and the recession all occurred before he took office. Bush's soared after 9/11 but tumbled after that until he left office. Other than being the first black president, he hasn't done anything significant- good or bad. But maybe that is a good thing.

And he is still hell bent on starting race wars before he leaves office.
He's a uniter of some who divide others.
