Its a vicious cycle.

Apparently 1/4 of Americans don't believe that Obama was born in the U.S., but that was a poll taken several months ago, so... it might have changed.
As for his approval ratings, low approval ratings are always natural when it comes to having a president in office for a certain amount of time. He's around 40-50% (I think), which actually is pretty good considering he's been president for about three years.
