Maybe so. But the DNC honored BLM at it's convention. Maybe Obama pushed the Dems that direction but it never seemed that way to me. Seems the other way around.
Obama's demeanor is not that of a typical black pol . . . dude is measured, I'll at least say that for him. I guess his "restraint" (and lack thereof) may demonstrate more of a wholesale ideologue than a shithead who does something abhorrently dishonorable and knows that he's doing it.

What are you talking about? Hillary won the popular vote by a lot. Most of those loons were proud Obama people.
I myself voted for him in 2008. I hated the W administration and the neocon agenda. Of course now realize how racist the Dems are and will never vote for another. But I admit to supporting him way back.

People can approve or disapprove all they like but the reality is this.
Inside of 4 years, it will be like he was never president.
Because it was his way or the highway, he basically was stuck using EOs and regulations. Easily reversed.
His one signature piece of legislation will not survive.
His deal with Syria is already proven bull shite
Three Iran deal will end the same way
The only notable things about his presidency will be that he was black and his party got smeared

Obama was an unmitigated failure...there is no question about that. He was, even as late as October 2016, convinced that he could encourage some sort of bipartisan movement in the United States when he should have known in 2008 that there was NO way that he was going to get any kind of bipartisanship in Washington and should have governed accordingly.
When you consider the alternatives to Obama....McCain, who nominated Sara Palin and never met a war he didn't like and Mitt Romney the GOP didn't exactly set the bar very high for Obama to be elected....seriously...his being elected the first time was a perfect storm of the first black presidential nominee of a major party combined with the rights dismissal of neo-conservativism embodied by the failings of the Bush administration...but you have to know that the GOP nominated a real loser in Romney when he lost to a black man in the middle of a pretty shitty economy....
Barrack Obama was a complete failure. He ran as a Bernie Sanders style candidate and then immediately became a Clinton / Bush neo-conservative. The left has never liked neo-cons and the right has given up on them after years of putting them in office...but for some reason Obama went that way. By the way Trump is going to do exactly the same thing....

Obama's presidency was a failure compared to whom - say Bush2 ?

This thread is not about Obama's approval, it's about his accomplishments and effectiveness.
The fact that so many Americans approve of failure, or will overlook failure, to advance their agenda of "diversity" is a sad commentary.

Yeah wasn't it 2010 when the Repubs gerrymandered the House Districts so that the Dems would have to get 55% of the National vote to get get 1/2 of the House seats.

"Failure"...is in the eye of the beholder, KC. The Community Organizer strategy of overloading the Government Subsidy System toward ultimate "engineered collapse" and total Government *rescue*...has been wildly successful. From Healthcare to illegal immigrant *rights*, near half the Nation is now on board with the Globalist Authoritarian Socialist agenda, with either Balkanization and/or civil war a real possibility.
I'd say Obama was very successful. Sadly so.

Dude, that community-agitating POS put his feet up on his desk during the first week & said, "Elections have consequences." Have you forgotten?
Obtw, Obama had majorities in both houses his first 2 years. His biggest two pieces of legislation during that time? (1) Failed Obamacare, and (2) A phony "stimulus plan" that was nothing but payback to his political cronies.
Nice try, though.

Obama was an affirmative action president. Him being in the White House was the ultimate salve to soothe people's guilt about the racial history of the US.

I agree with all of This, RCD. The article was evaluating Obama in a conventional sense; that is, from the standpoint of anything he actually did FOR America. From that perspective, BHO was a miserable failure.
But, from the perspective of what Obama's personal agenda was? You're absolutely right. He purposely did much damage to America. I've known that. That's why I often refer to hi. as an anti-American, community-agitating POS.

All you have to do, bv, is become a little more perceptive while reading this board. Posters here who did nothing but support & defend Obama FOR YEARS are now acting like they weren't really for him.
You should already know that, bv, bc (1) I've had multiple conversations with many of them lately, and (2) obviously, you read every post I make.

You often seem to be in a different reality than the rest of us when it comes to these things.

I guess I can assume from your childish, inept response that you couldn't think of any worthwhile, coherent, response to my post. Well at least that kept you from making a fool of yourself.
