@Frank Apisa,
Quote:Obama may not go down in history as a great president, but he will be seen as a competent one...and one who persevered in the face of opposition of a twisted sort.
He will go down as a president who massively failed to understand the shortcomings of the medical system, and who massively misjudged the problems of the economy, and who was almost completely irrelevant in the social changes taking place.
The fact that he faced a fanatical opposition will be barely noted, as is just, because great leaders must always overcome opposition. The fact that his opposition has not been tamed is just another sign of his failure to achieve. It will however be broadly noted that Obama made almost no effort to work with Congress, nor anyone else for that matter, largely explaining his lack of productivity.
