Obama - highly overrated ?

He was symbolism over substance really. A black-ish man (Hawaiian, Kenyan, other things) who was a basically a gifted orator, but a political light weight. I don't think he really changed anything, and his most significant political accomplishment - Obamacare - is slowly being undone .

Not completely 6
He was a waste 9
Not at all 9
Highly! 3
Somewhat 6

      I enjoy AntiTrumpers far more than pro Trumpers. It gives me a great chance to defend him and say stop blaming Trump. He didn't elect himself to the White House. We did. I did. And will try to do so again. Blame me Jagoff. I am not brainwashed. I like him. Far more than any liberal socialist idealist acorn eating perennial "victim" whine bag. I heard everything he did and said. I don't care. I DONT CARE what he said or who he offended. (OH MY GO THE O WORD!!). I am AMERICA first. Build The Wall

      I never thought he would win. I just applaud his raw balls out courage for just standing up there firing salvos. And he won. He has my vote again. Once again. I can't believe he actually pulled it off... But well done sir. MAGA. Trump 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

        Trump rolled thru America like a supercharged maglev train, he even shocked me. The man hardly put any effort into his campaign, he just had fun.

        Success is simply his nature.

          Yep! It was very very impressive. He just wiped that whole panel of republican candidates off the stage like they were just lame duck canidates staged by Don King to make it seem like a fight.

          Only THOSE GUYS were actually the true experienced "favorites" in the beginning.

        I can say right now that I'm glad Trump is a liar. That wall won't be built and he probably hasn't even mentioned it that much after his campaign. He has no idea what he's doing, and that is our fault for allowing him to win. I think his anti-immigrant policies are absolutely awful. Considering this nation was founded on immigrants, its terrible to try to remove people who are willing to do the jobs Americans are too lazy to do. He's ripping away families by having these travel bans. He has made some big mistakes in reference to nuclear weapons, the Middle East, and North Korea. He believes rape is a joke, he is racist, transphobic. I'm not a weak pussy, I am basically composed 100% of dark humor. But I know when something stops being a joke, and starts being a problem. Look at Trump's popularity ratings and let them speak for the American people. He's not good. He's possibly the worst president of modern time. He's immature and argumentative and arrogant. I don't hate him. I'm trying to give him a chance. But it's getting pretty hard for most of us.

          there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant. They are illegal ALIENS. oh and funny ... Google 'Bill Clinton 1995 state of Union address illegal aliens". They are ILLEGAL ALIENS . We have an immigration policy and we have
          processes. They can be followed.
          The laws in place need to be enforced and have been needed to be A LONG TIME. And because they have not been, unfortunately this period of time where we are now drawing a line in the sand is simply gonna be a bit ugly. If laws had been enforced and followed way back when, we wouldn't be in this mess. Get them
          Documented and legal. Period.

    Yes, way overrated. I hope the ACA does evolve into universal healthcare for the US, though. I will mostly remember him for the ammo shortages and high gun prices until/unless we get this medical thing squared away. He didn't really do anything else.

    Don't think he really changed anything? Say that to the victims of his and hrc's 3k + drone strikes in northwest Pakistan (with a <10% chance of hitting the intended target)

    Or the victims of his OVER 26,000 bombs dropped... in his last year in office alone

      not of a fan of him but that argument is invalid. Terrorist hide in civilian facilities to avoid getting hit. Often times civilians aid in hiding some of these terrorist so many drones have little choice.

        You don't have any evidence that what I said was "invalid" or even an argument.

        I stated a well known fact as to the amount of bombs dropped and the accuracy rate of drone strikes.

        As for accuracy I commented only in respect to drones which if you researched would know is due to our poor technology and abuse of power by the pilots themselves.

        I am really turned off by how dismissive you were without knowing what you're talking about, since there are reports of pilots firing after people with little to no information whether it is the right person to begin with.

        I did not even bring up collateral damage, if you read what I actually wrote it said chance of hitting the intended target, so even if ALL terrorists hid in school, hospitals, etc. if we were aiming at the right people always it would still be a 100% rate of hitting the target.

        Other people being killed is incidental to how accurate drones are. I didn't claim 10% of all people killed were terrorists.

        The majority of strikes don't kill any terrorists.

      I'm asking out of curiosity, since I know basically nothing about this:was he completely aware of the likelihood of the drones hitting the correct location? Isn't there a cabinet member that helps with war-related things or whatever? Why would he willingly allow innocent people to be killed for a small chance that the bad guys will be killed as well?

        If you check around on YouTube there are a couple great interviews with former drone 'pilots' that explain it far better than me.

          hand selected hand picked pilots who were already leaning in one direction politically. just sayin, and i'm a Trump supporter.

            You dont have this information. I will trust any former pilot more than arguments you make up.

    he imported hundreds of thousands of somali non chirstian refugees into rurual christian communities to f*ck with their voting base. Displaced the very african americans he promised to support by spending billions on foreign aid while letting traditional American communities rot. Then forced us into the paris climate deal which would mean additional taxes on all americas for driving their cars regardless of whether they are rich or poor. I was a democrat and voted for him initially but am pretty pissed off now. The only thing that has somewhat recovered from his doing is the stock market, and that always goes up and down so what does it matter now.

    The fact alone that he cares more about non christian, non assimilating refugees from countries that despise us already suggests his poor leadership. He has ruined the midwest with his sh*t, not to mention allowed for the continued subsidizing of amazon that has resulted in the loss of millions of US jobs. He destabilized the middle east with him and hillary clintons funding of the arab spring then pressured european countries to take in millions of refugees, totally out breading and replacing the native european population (i don't care about race but culture, although one has to admit that the mass displacement of particular european cultural groups is in itself quite alarming)

    He saved the country from economic disaster, just like the next democratic president will have to do.
