It will be looked on as mediocre. He hasn't done much for the economy outside of stabilizing it. Obamacare will be his downfall. Hillary will start dealing with foreign affairs in which Obama sorely lacked. She will also quell the racial tensions instead of fanning the flames. How she wins congress will make or break her. Bill Clinton is looked up on favorably. Obama is no Bill. Not even close.
I just don't understand the 'racial tension' that Obama caused. If his rather benign statements about racism really did irk so many Americans, maybe the problem isn't Obama, but the American people?
Obama had a historic tailwind through the Federal Reserve's actions over the past 5 years. A blind monkey could have eeked out a couple percentage points of GDP growth given that. Ironically, that's about all we got in terms of growth, which is why it has been a historically weak recovery compared to previous recoveries.
In part due to the historically weak response from a Congress more interested in making the president look bad than actually doing something positive for the economy.
Be careful there. From W to Reagan to rest of the GOP and even to the leaders of EUs and China doesn't appreciate being less effective than a blind monkey.
Beergate “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon,” Obama said. “When I think about this boy, I think about my own kids.”
And the problem is that Hakeem Olajuwon didn't win 4 championships instead of 2, so he must be a loser. And the problem is that we didn't nuke Germany and Italy as well as Japan, so Harry Truman was a loser. And the problem is that out of the 12 Beatles studio albums, only 11 are multi-platinum LPs, so the Beatles are losers. And the problem is that LilliputianTex holds zero biases and the rest of us do, so we all, except for him, are losers.

As usual, you are confused (not only about economics and history) but also with the difference between cause and effect. But, you're in the tank for Hillary, so 3.5 stars I guess? I don't even know.
Point proven. If that irks Americans enough to increase racial tensions, then the problem isn't Obama, but the American people and their 'safe spaces'.
Well, Mitt Romney promised a 6% unemployment goal by 2017 and we're currently at 5% .So "blind monkey" is *decidedly* less ambitious than even best case GOP scenarios which tend to set the bar more at "dead skunk" or "comatose sea cucumber." - as even a blind monkey has some higher level brain activity I don't doubt however, that if we elect Cruz/Rubio etc or pass a Republican budget - we can get that number up to or even past 6, where the GOP wants it! Try to fix that in 2020, Monkey!
uh, learn to read. I didn't say Obama was a blind monkey. and also learn to embed pics. there is nothing in your post that you didn't completely fail at.
Mitt Romney, less ambitious than a blind moneky:grin: Bigtexxx will be silent on this though. Moving goal posts is one of his favorite tactics.
if mccain were president for the last 7 years i PROMISE you the economy would be worse off in this country.
