That apathy is primarily taken as a denouncement of the system though. That is what Obama is responding to: the dissatisfaction or indifference towards our current government.

He's promising to do well these next two years as a way to give non-voters a reason to participate in the next election. I would suppose he's gambling on them being democrats.
