They care more about their agenda than liberals do about their (supposed) agenda.

Compare the vid you posted to the Dems always looking to negotiate and back down when the Republicans put up a fight.
because the democrats have a bunch of differing factions like those fakkit blue dogs :pacspit:

while Republicans are all unified zealots

This ignores many, and I mean many, of the internal decisions that were compromised before it even got to a vote. It's not fair to ignore that.

It's also not fair to ignore the troubling decisions his administration made that had nothing to do with the legislative branch.
I agree I dont ignore these things but he didnt do a bad job overall imo he is a pragmatist and corporatist and not all the Liberal like most dems these days thats my criticism of him.

One of the better President we've ever had, good enough to warrant a third term if it was allowed.

Never been a fan of his foreign policy and his economic views are a little too left for my liking, but he's a big improvement over his predecessor

They wasted a mandate, control of the government, political clout and a populist movement on a Republican health care bill that gave more power to insurance companies, increased premiums on the working class, and will now be repealed.

Even the stimulus package was compromised to include Bush Era tax policies.

It makes me sad and angry everytime I think about it.

he tried his best but the GOP fukked him over

he was a leader you could be proud of, he was respected.

he stood up for the Palestinians as much as he could, and refused to be Netanyu's bytch like the GOP

he tried to get a decent health insurance system, got fukked over by Lieberman

he never sowed division, never oppressed anyone

he spoke about the Trayvon Martin Case when no cac president wouldve cared.

His DOJ put charges on Garner's murderer

Shut down all federal private prisons and tanked their stock price (which skyrocketed after trump won)

listened to BLM and restricted all military gear/weapon sales to police dept

Had the toughest task day 1 fixing the WOAT economy and he accomplished it and also left with a prosperous economy and unemployment down to 4%

absolutely no scandals whatsover despite being the most scrutinized president in history

His biggest flaw was that he was to much of a Centrist but w/e I still rank him as one of the top presidents and we grew complacent after 8 years of having him and we're about to see what its like when hes gone and replaced with the complete opposite

and the unmeasurable and invaluable impact hes had as a role model to all the young black kids

idc what anyone says he was a great president to me :obama: :whew::to:

nikkas giving obama credit for doing shyt a regular, decent human being would do :what:
"He didn't murder any old ladies and fukk their dead bodies in front of a preschool. He was awesome!" :blessed:

The highlights of his Presidency in my opinion:

- Re-establishing diplomacy with Cuba
- Iran Nuclear deal
- Killing Bin Laden
- Pardoning of Drug related offenses
- Amending federal sentencing
- Respecting states rights in reference to Marijuana


The lowlights list would go past the character limit. I've been very vocal over my displeasure with the President's and Democrats' last 8 years.

  • Agree
  • Dont know how to compute it really but something had to be done
  • Agree..scust how Hillary tried to take the credit
  • Agree
  • Couldve done more
  • Yeah but he said he would legalize it on the 08 campaign trail. Somewhat disappointed with that but he did leave it to the states which may be the more judicious approach

I don't think he was any better or worse than Jimmy Carter.

Carter stuck to his ideals and didn't sell out though. So maybe carter was better

people really shyt on Carter but hes a legit good person. kinda sad how the democratic party has discarded him all these years

And had Obama prosecuted Bush administration officials like he should have for breaking federal and international laws, the precedent would not be there for Trump to bring that shyt back.

No, He was not a great President. But, I give credit where credit is due.
  1. Killing Osama Bin Laden
  2. Affordable healthcare act ( a step in the right direction, not a full solution)
  3. Low gas prices ( I know He doesn't control this, but the whole country would have complained if gas prices were high)
  4. Having a black family in the White House ( This will not count as anything to some of you on here for obvious reasons)
  5. You can count the Iran deal if you want, but that's up to you
