I predict his legacy as POTUS will mirror that except on a national scale.
Not an Obama fan but I like when people who say such things actually show their work. Or are you just babbling?

President Barack Obama returns to an outwardly thriving New Orleans Thursday to mark strides 10 years after Hurricane Katrina. But underneath the visible recovery lie persistent racial and economic inequities that haven't receded a decade since the storm.
Tens of thousands of African-Americans fled New Orleans after Katrina hit, never to return. The city's poverty rate has remained near 30%. And according to one analysis, African-American households in the city earn more than 50% less than their white counterparts -- well above the national average.

Why is this surprising? Landrieu did an interview in The Atlantic about violence in NOLA and said that black males currently have a 52% unemployment rate in the city. Hard to make much money when only one half of the household attempts to find work.

What do they earn for the exact same jobs with the same qualifications?
What a stupid, manipulative sentence.
