Homicides have dropped 13 percent. The economy has added more than 9 million jobs, and the jobless rate has dropped to below the historical median. The number of long-term unemployed Americans has dropped by 614,000 under Obama. Corporate profits are up 166 percent; real weekly wages are up 3.4 percent. There are 15 million fewer people who lack health insurance. Wind and solar power have nearly tripled, and now account for more than 5 percent of U.S. electricity. |

It sure did. "Homicides and other violent crime have decreased markedly since Obama took office. "According to the FBI’s most recent annual compilation of crime reports published Dec. 14, there were 2,216 fewer murders and deaths from nonnegligent manslaughter in the U.S. during 2014 than in 2008, the year before Obama first took office. That’s a 13 percent reduction in the number of homicides. "The drop in all violent crime — including homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — is even greater. There were 229,078 fewer violent crimes in the U.S. in 2014 than in 2008, a drop of 16 percent, according to the FBI. "And because the U.S. population was growing, the violent crime rate dropped even faster than the absolute numbers. In 2014, the homicide rate was 4.5 per 100,000 inhabitants, down from 5.4 in 2008."

Obama swept in on a wave of goodwill. He promised so much and delivered so little. As a person Obama is great but as a President he was an abysmal failure.
He managed to double the national debt for America in his 8 years. His Obama Health care is a costly mistake. |

The first bill President Obama signed was the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, to help women fight back when they don't get equal pay for equal work.
His Recovery Act supported millions of jobs and helped to stave off a second Great Depression. He pushed for and won middle class tax cuts that benefited every American worker, and saved the typical family $3,600 in taxes over the last four years. He doubled funding for Pell Grants, helping to make college more affordable for nearly 10 million families. His student loan reform ended billions in subsidies to banks serving as middlemen and reinvested those savings directly in students. The President established the American Opportunity Tax Credit, worth up to $10,000 over four years of college. His Race to the Top Initiative helped spur nearly every state to raise academic standards. His tax cuts, social-welfare programs, and economic policies lifted nearly 7 million Americans above the federal poverty line in 2010. President Obama has signed more 18 tax cuts for small businesses since taking office. The unemployment rate is at 4.9% Health care reform—passed after decades of failed attempts by every previous president—provides affordable health coverage to every American and will lower premiums by an average of $2,000 per family by 2019. Obamacare expanded access to lifesaving preventive care such as cancer screenings and immunizations with no out-of-pocket costs for 54 million Americans. Obamacare ends insurance discrimination against the 129 million Americans with pre-existing conditions. Because of Obamacare, over 3 million more young adults have health insurance today than would if the new law hadn't passed. The parents of over 17 million children with pre-existing conditions no longer have to worry that their children will be denied coverage. President Obama has ordered the overhaul of federal government regulations to make them smarter, practical, and more efficient. Just a fraction of these common-sense initiatives will help save businesses $10 billion in the next five years alone. His investments in clean energy have helped more than double the amount of electricity America obtains from wind and solar sources and helped increase biofuel production to its highest level in history. Obama is doubled fuel efficiency standards, which will save drivers more than $8,000 at the gas pump, not to mention lessen the impact of automobiles on our environment. Obama took unprecedented action to address climate change, reaching historic international agreements to curb carbon emissions, and taking action in America to reduce carbon pollution from vehicles and promote clean energy production. He has taken action to protect our environment—signing one of the largest expansions of protected wilderness in a generation and putting in place standards to reduce toxic air pollution that will save thousands of lives. President Obama fought for and won landmark Wall Street reform that reins in the abuses that led to the financial crisis and ends the era of taxpayer bailouts and "too big to fail." Wall Street reform created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the nation's first federal agency focused solely on consumer financial protection—and the Bureau is already protecting families from unfair and abusive financial practices from Wall Street banks and shadowy corners of the financial industry. Obama's all-of-the-above approach to energy has helped cut the United States' dependence on foreign oil to its lowest level in 20 years. Obama rallied the international community to implement the toughest sanctions on Iran in history. Through the President's historic increases in Veterans Affairs funding, he has expanded and improved healthcare and job training access for returning veterans. Obama negotiated the New START Treaty with Russia to reduce the number of nuclear weapons in both countries. At the same time, he also secured commitments from dozens of other countries to lock down nuclear materials. His administration naturalized 11,146 military service members as U.S. citizens in 2010; more than in any year since 1955. He affirmed his personal support of marriage equality, directed the Justice Department to stop defending DOMA in federal courts, and took the practical and compassionate step of extending hospital visitation rights to same-sex partners. He repealed "Don't Ask, Don't Tell", allowing gay and lesbian members of the military to serve openly for the first time in history. |

Obama's Legacy...what freaking Legacy? Are you talking on how the Obama Government doubled the nation debt to 19 Trillion dollars in 8 years.
Or are you talking about Obama Health Care that costs the average family more per year than their Mortgage...Yes Donald Trump is going to axe that carcass before it axes itself. It is dire financial straits and before the election pundits said it would go broke within 5 years. The U.S.national identity was being threatened by Obama, a Muslim, trying to turn the U.S. into Islam central...a message that voters across the nation sent to Obama and Clinton when they rejected mass Muslim migration that Obama was carrying out. The U.S. public sent the Politicians a clear message...America first...America first.....America first Who could blame them |

normally that would be true. But this particular scum specialises in calling someone a pedo if they even dare to have a position short of capital punishment so no, it is quite justified. I can debate with anyone, but when she calls me (and others) pedos simply for disagreeing with her opinion then all bets are off. Yes, she is allowed an opinion - and so am I. We are both aware of that. She is not. |
