Erasing The Obama Legacy

Early this year while the health care reform debate was raging, President Barack Obama declared that he'd "rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president." In the wake of last week's midterm election results and the president’s reaction to them, a third option is now a very real possibility. Will a man who promised to fundamentally transform the country be remembered by history as a mere footnote; a one-term president whose only memorable achievement was being the first African American to hold the office?

On par to be a very, very bad one term president.

Mercifully.

OTOH one could say he’s the very best Marxist US president ever. I’m really not that kind of optimist but hey, the communists in CP-USA are pretty happy about him.

He will be remembered the same way King George was : The arrogant leader who caused a revolution.

Yes he will be remembered...

..As the first to be elected Half-Black candidate...
..As the first non-eligible candidate....
..As just another fraud of the demoCRATS...
..As just another socialist of the demoCRATS...
..As just another example of the fraud of racial equality...

Excuse me - how is racial equality a fraud? Did you really mean exactly that?

Who wants to erase his legacy, lets build a monument to it so maybe people will remember next time when they want to vote for an idiot that they shouldn’t do so.

How ‘bout door three. Really bad one-term president.

So, affirmative action, and not the concept that all races are equal under the law, is your problem?

Preferred status based on race is my problem. I got the burn as early as the ‘70’s, thanks to Jimmy Carter. I have no problem with equality under the law. It’s what made the US great...until the ‘70’s. We haven’t had equality under the law since then.

It was a double whammy. Race and gender.

Yup. Got turned over as a white male for a black female that could not do the job. She was a two-fer.

I agree. If ever there was a reason for affirmative action, it has become obsolete.

Had a friend that delivered fifty gallon drums of lubricant in US Steel. He got a rather large black female "helper". He ended up both driving the truck and moving the drums because she couldn't handle it.
