Obama Becomes A “Great” President

TucsonRaider 3 months agoYeah, this may or may not be true. By the time of Reagan’s second inaugural, the economy was back in overdrive (7.2% annual growth). This time, it’s not (2.7%). Not arguing that Obama hasn’t done a lot legislatively and that he’ll certainly be remembered as a president ‘of consequence’. But, for Obama’s policies to ‘stick’ in a way that Reagan’s did—for America to truly move left in a way he’d like (especially economically)—I’d argue he has to leave office with a similarly recovered and booming America. That’s what ultimately convinces people that you were right and future politicians should follow suit. Obama simply hasn’t done that yet.

johnnieg2 4 months agoSomehow I don’t remember Democrats in Reagan’s Congress agreeing they would vote against any and everything he proposed with the goal of making sure he failed and would not be re-elected. Certainly there were no corporate funded massive protests within 3 months of his election, like the Koch funded Freedom works stirring up the tea Party on Tax day of 2009.
