Actually since Obama has been such a tremendous success.
yes for sure!! Foreign policy is a scary, dangerous mess with ISIS and Putin while at home we have worst recovery since Great depression with fewer full time jobs than when Barry took office, declining real income, and real unemployment at around 12%!
Ouch, actually the opposite is true, you must watch fox? Do you care about actual facts?
- 63 straight months of economic expansion.
With nearly all of the expansion going to the wealthy and most Americans not feeling better off. Tack on the worst real wage growth (decline actually) in modern times, and the picture aint nearly as pretty.
One of the slowest recoveries since the Great Depression, you mean.
A deficit reduced by two thirds.
That is true. I'll give him partial credit for that. But I do think the fact Congress was in gridlock, and thus couldn't actually pass anything, had something to do with it as well. However, the Obama budget did end up reducing the deficit. Can't deny that one.
A healthcare law that's working and lowering costs.
That is debatable.
Two women on the Supreme Court.
Two women, one of whom is a Latina (don't forget that)! As far as getting more minorities and women appointed to government positions, Obama has had a success there. Again, no denying that.
I'd give him that too. But I'd prefer he were held on trial.
Stock market at record heights.
That is not necessarily a good, but does not really have much to do with Obama. The Federal Reserve's unprecedented bond buying and quantitative easing measures have a lot to do with this. Now that the Fed is ending QE and planning to raise interest rates next year, expect stocks to fall back down.
Obama has also done a good job on gay rights, repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell, ensuring quick implementation of the
Windsor decision, and passing an executive order prohibiting federal LGBT discrimination.
