that doesn't follow. a better economy means a higher stock market. so perhaps he's not responsible for the entirety, but his policies have played a part in the increase.
no it doesnt mean that leftard. it USED TO FOLLOW that a high stock market meant a healthy economy. that hasnt been the case for some time now. that's why poverty reached a FIFTY YEAR HIGH on obama's watch, and income inequality grew. how have "his policies played a part in the increase"???
so you're going to argue that the economy is in worse shape than it was when the president took office?
1. when obama took office was a period, a time frame. it isnt indicative of the whole previous President's time in office. Straw man
2. 13 million more are on food stamps in obama's SEVENTH YEAR, then were under Bush
3. the very richest got richer under obama, the poorest got poorer; both at a FASTER PACE than was happening under bush
