Assessing how Obama did as president
    #23831560 - 11/14/16 08:59 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

So im just curious if you guys think Obama did a good job while he was president. Please dont be biased. i am curious and would like honest opinions. If he didnt do a good job, tell me why

I don't discuss politics, not even with friends/family, but his second term he did better than the first I thought, and to be honest I am going to miss him.  He had a good way of carrying himself, and it was honestly refreshing to see someone that wasn't some old white man in the white house, he gave American some swag.


That's all I am going to say about that.

For the elites that put him into office- A +.

For 80% of the population- D.

I think the only presidents that were more favorable after their terms in office are the ones who got assassinated.

Well, he was arrogant, bigoted, impulsive, close-minded, dishonest and partisan.

He was one of the most pathetic Presidents we've had.

Obama sucks. Can't believe that asshole is leaving us with the best performing economy in the world. I'm sure trump will claim all credit for it too, and his lackeys will eat it up.

Reagan's standard was "are you better off than you were four years ago?" If you can't say that you're better off now than when Obama took office, then frankly you're a loser.

Yeah Obama set up this whole domino effect. He was a piece of shit the minute he stepped into office claiming he would provide tens of millions of jobs like he owned every business in the world that would hire one person. He did though do a really good job wasting money.

At least the stuff he wasted money on was tangible enough. Perhaps no president ever again that will waste tens of billions of dollars every year will ever again waste such money on such dynamic projects. Really though, having a president that just doesn't waste money for no point or any politician in this borrow only unless above the 1% society seems to be completely mythical. That will never happen. So I guess it doesn't matter who is in office.

Yeah though, the only reason I regret saying goodbye to Obama is because of the trash we are replacing him with in office. Otherwise, fuck him. Waste of time. Thanks for doing better on your last two years or something. Bye.

You just said in another thread that politicians have very little to do with the performance of the economy and should not try and take credit for it.

No I did not. I said that political news has little effect on the markets. And that something like an election or campaign promises don't really move markets. Actual policies that demonstrate an effect on the economy move markets,

What do you think of his actual policies? Or you want to see them implemented before you make any real decision on how you feel of their affects?

he has a remarkably high approval rating for a president at the end of his second term. almost unheard of high approval. something like 58% while bush has 28% at the same part of his presidency.

Overall people have a very high opinion of him as president.

honestly, he really did well at likability, but if he had really improved things like the snowflakes on this site think, then we wouldn't have:

35 state governorsips under republican control;
34 state legislatures owned by the repubs;
a republican senate;
a republican house;
And PRESIDENT TRUMP tO YOU SNOWFLAKE--ready to appoint a supermajority of supremes.

It's called the SCOREBOARD MOThaFucka!  Superbowl is over and it's republicans 45,

it's true. His approval ratings are almost historically good for a president at the end of his second term. obviously he is hated by many, but to the extent that we can know anything about this, all the statistical and quantitative evidence indicates he is remarkably well liked.


in some ways this isn't hard to understand- he is a superb public speaker, makes excellent speeches and is personable and charismatic with a silver tongue and obvious intelligence.

those qualities make him well liked even by many who don't support his party or his policies or who don't agree with his actions.

Lowest common denominator? 10 men jump off a bridge. The first guy jumps off a 110 foot bridge. The last guy jumps off a 20 foot bridge. He by measurement of factor of least common failure must be a pretty good guy.

It's true though because of economic policy the hard work of people that actually get up and do shit this is still a country with an extremely high standard of living. Unless you live in Compton. Otherwise if you are elite this place is great you just can't beat it

Yet, Obama voters are the same people who got Trump elected, please explain that reality. 

Why would Obama voters switch to such a different candidate if he was so "popular" according to the bullshit polls you believe in today?  What you're suggesting does NOT add up at all. :shrug:

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Obama did an excellent job of turning everything republican! :awesomenod:

The truth is, you have to be president of ALL the people.  You just can't back thugs, then go drink 300$ a bottle fine wine with the elites at marthas vineyard and pretend your for the little guy. 

That fucking turd doesn't float with the average joe, and obviously it didn't float with the working man given the results of the last election.

I think Obama did better than people say, he inherited an economy that was bound and determined to fail.

He didn't creat the mess, he was just left to clean it up

What a bullshit cop-out.  'IT ISN'T MY FAULT'  If he would have had a clue he would have turned it around, and we'd have hillary as president. After all, he had 8 years to make good.  1% growth in gDP?  Big fucking deal.

Obama didn't fix a damn thing. He just prolonged the inevitable. Look at the bond markets right now.

Well, this is the truth.  Nothing has been fixed, in fact the risks are now even larger.  Trump is going to have a crisis on his hands at some point in his term.

Did Obama buy us 8 years of time?  Yes, but payback is going to be a bitch.

So im just curious if you guys think Obama did a good job while he was president. Please dont be biased. i am curious and would like honest opinions. If he didnt do a good job, tell me why




as an establishment politician he didn't do as bad as he could have. I consider him to have done many bad things but realistically, so has every president in recent history. A lot of what he wanted to do he simply couldn't, but what I take issue with is stuff like his stance on whistle-blowers, his overseas involvements, his allowing of numerous drone strikes and other questionable military activities in general.

It's all because of 8 years of Obama.

Face it, it's now a great big shit sandwich, and everyone has to take a bite.

Well considering about a third of the country hated him due to his name, skin pigmentation, and place of birth, I would say he did pretty good.

Just imagine if you had to serve in that position for a country full of old racist fucks. I would have killed a few in 8 years....as far as I know, he didn't.

he has a remarkably high approval rating for a president at the end of his second term. almost unheard of high approval. something like 58% while bush has 28% at the same part of his presidency.

Overall people have a very high opinion of him as president.




:rofl2:  Good one.




it's true. His approval ratings are almost historically good for a president at the end of his second term. obviously he is hated by many, but to the extent that we can know anything about this, all the statistical and quantitative evidence indicates he is remarkably well liked.


in some ways this isn't hard to understand- he is a superb public speaker, makes excellent speeches and is personable and charismatic with a silver tongue and obvious intelligence.

those qualities make him well liked even by many who don't support his party or his policies or who don't agree with his actions.




Yet, Obama voters are the same people who got Trump elected, please explain that reality. 

Why would Obama voters switch to such a different candidate if he was so "popular" according to the bullshit polls you believe in today?  What you're suggesting does NOT add up at all. :shrug:




so your saying that because Trump was elected Obama's  approval ratings aren't accurate ?

that doesn't follow. many of the same people who like Obama hate Hillary. Hillary has an abysmal approval rating just as Obama has a good one. 

none of the good things that can be said about Obama can be said about Hillary. Many of the horrible things about Hillary don't apply to Obama.

Obama and Hillary are totally different people and Obama wasn't running in this election. Trump winning over Hillary doesn't have any relevance to the fact that Obama has a fairly high approval rating.  Hillary is despised, not only by Trump voters but also by many who previously voted for Obama.

many people who voted for Obama twice voted for Trump in this election.
