About Obama's US, locally?

According to the Real Clear Politics average for the direction of the country only 38% think the US is on the right track versus 54% that think the US is on the wrong track.

So when Obama goes internationally in the UN and speak of his four pillars: 1) vast nuclear arms reductions; 2) promotion of peace in the Middle East and elsewhere; 3) new efforts on climate change; and 4) common resolve on global economic problems, he seems a little too busy at home for actually be believable on the international podium.

He also could have gotten a standing ovation from the EU by taking the lead on climate change. At least not yet. Or is perhaps climate change efforts the wrong track?
