One word "Despicable".
Grading the Obama presidency
Economic policy: C+. He was unwilling to take on Wall Street manipulators, who had just crashed the American economy at a time when he and surrogates could have rallied large segments of the country to support him.
Farm policy: F The White House abjectly failed to support our first black Attorney General when he tried to bring anti=trust charges against Monsanto.
Foreign policy: B. A mixed bag. A for the treaty with Iran, D for continuing the military involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq, F for allowing Killary to manipulate us into adventures in regime change if Libya, Honduras, Syria and I think there were others. I counted 5 at one time.
Domestic policy: B Here I think in fairness it is necessary to point out that Obama simply did not have the network of people who owed him favors of someone like LBJ.
Conduct while in office: A Granted the bar here has become pretty low in recent decades. Unlike his Republican predecessor and successor, Obama was out in front, seen as in charge during national emergencies. As many have pointed out, the G.W. Bush presidency was over after Katrina. There were no major scandals, and the Obama family's conduct in public, at home and abroad was impeccable. A minimum requirement, but I do think an American president AND family should know how to behave in public.
Conduct post presidency: B Not inspiring like Carter, but not creepy like Bush.

Sell-out
.

in a sense, sold his ass for monetary gain
sang a song for his masters benefit and
cashed-in. No soul left in that skin.
truth is considered foreign influence, world peace is a threat to national security
Exactly What I Expected...
Was never an Obama person, ever. Could see he would be a sell-out from the beginning. I was, sadly, not surprised at his presidency.

Looking to score his fourth term as POTUS
Two of his own, one with his earbud buddy, Joe (almost a fete accompli) and the forth with his empty-headed-joyful- empty-suit; Kamala (assuming she does not get swapped out last minute).
