How will Americans and NON Americans rate Barack Obama's legacy in The Whitehouse

curiosi · 61-69, F
He knocked Jimmy Carter off the throne of being WORST president ever. He HATED America and did his best to destroy it.

@nedkelly: I think if I ever came into a lot of money I'd be helping Habitat for Humanity, would love to build a community of tiny homes for people who don't have a lot of money for property taxes, utilities or heating & a/c.... My city is building a tiny house community for the homeless but it's not property they can buy and pay for and get equity so it's a short-term solution. I know two individuals, both older single men, who could benefit from such a home, it would be big enough for what they need without breaking their budget.

@nedkelly: He is an icon. Gets more respect worldwide than both Bushs combined. And that is saying a lot.🙂

@nedkelly: Patti has a victim mindset among other things. But when shes sensible she makes valid points.🙂

@LadyJuneBug: We were attacked by a terrorist group and he decided to invade Iraq. That's not a "mess-up." It was one of the most expensive mistakes of all time.

He doesn't have any scandals that I have heard of. Not even the False kind. Discrimination issues are being addressed more openly than at any other time in history. It is better than it was 100yr's ago. It would be nice to wake up tomorrow and all that BS was over with.

@Zonuss: That's rich
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@softspokenman: I meant Master Lee.
@Zonuss: I think he has a bad case of that dreaded social disease; Bunghole-itis.

All I can say is that race relations have been set back a few decades. In that sense, he could be the worst president in modern hostory.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Zonuss: Oh obama had a lot to do with it
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@MasterLee: No. It was the.media you airhead. Not Obama. He never blasted Mexicans. Muslims. Or females like Trump.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Zonuss: guess you missed the beer summit, blasting police with no facts, accusing people of being racists from the bully pulput, sending the justice department after only white on black crime, defending the black panthers...
MasterLee · 56-60, M
The mess trump is inheriting from obama is astounding
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Zonuss: no good liberal since 63?
How did you know that I live under a rock that is lovely, it's quite comfortable and spacious too.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@softspokenman: Lucky guess
SweetMae · 70-79, F
That is hard to say. Sometimes it takes years to see the full effect of a President.
I agree. Good or bad.

@Zonuss: I have a life and it isn't available to you
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@MasterLee: Maybe if you had a more abstract life and not influenced by political dogmatism you wouldnt be so bitter.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Zonuss: maybe you wouldn't make such assumptions
as a non-american and being ignorant of how obama's tenure has been on the domestic front -

i believe he was one of the better presidents - i wouldn't go as far as to say he was the best but he was well enough - he did the best he could and the world did actually move forward during his time as the president of the US.

It seems as though the country has become more divided now, than before his tenure began. But it's too early to try to measure full impact of his "legacy".

Not much changed.

Sure... we had the ACA. It was a piss poor deal for health care but it was a start. When "single payer" was dropped... I knew it was a joke.

He didn't start any silly and expensive wars. That's a good thing.

The whole transgender thing was a stain on his presidency. I just don't know why we all needed to go there.

Racism became popular again. I can't really blame him. I really think it was American's behaving badly.

"Let them eat cake" might be one of the first reported instances of fake news.
I understand. 8)
MasterLee · 56-60, M
single payer is a joke
Carissimi · 70-79, F

Zonuss · 41-45, M
Uninformed and unaware

@kingkyrie: People hate Bush and his dad. When I ask these people down South about him now they dont even say his name.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Zonuss: Yes and people hate obama for his horrible liberal policies, total lack of transparency, lack of knowledge, and racism.

He was a horrible drag on the economy but a win for racial equality :)
Zonuss · 41-45, M
Bush killed the economy. But Obama like other Democratic presidents cleaned up this mess. Rust Belt has been dead since early 80s. Its a state by state issue and the governors need to be held accountable.

I have to say, I've liked him a lot more these past few months..in comparison

Better than what Dubya did.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
The Republicans hate when people say that.

I'm indifferent to what republicans think. I'm not even a democrat. @Zonuss:
MasterLee · 56-60, M
Oh I doubt this
CaptainCanadia · 41-45, M
You're not going to have a sense of his legacy until the end of Trump's term.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
His legacy has already been felt.
