As President Obama navigates his way through a series of issues as controversial as they are vital, he\'s getting a yellow flag from the American people. For the first time since Obama took office, fewer than half of Americans agree with the president on issues important to them, according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll released Tuesday. A majority, 51 percent, disagree -- a jump of 10 percentage points since April. Despite the majority disagreement on issues, the poll also found the president\'s approval rating remains in the healthy mid-50s. And two-thirds of Americans say he has the personal qualities a president should have.
