I think the lack of big f-ups in the rest of the world like Clinton (Somalia) and Bush (Iraq) is his biggest contribution to the World. He also got US out of Iraq and things are much better in Afghanistan. What has he done that is good for the US? I think some good and harm so overall neutral. |
You do realize that getting us out of Iraq had nothing to do with Obama, as he left on the agreed timetables set by Bush, right? Additionally, Afghanistan has been more violent since Obama has been in office, not less violent.
@HS - I fully agree that good politicians willing to take a hit usually work out great. But few go in with the attitude that the next election doesn't matter. I think Kaisch and Walker both have done that to varying degrees, and look to have 2nd terms despite the hatred towards them initially.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
