The Legacy Term

This morning I heard some TV blabbers talking about the President's need to turn his second term into his "legacy term."  I had to agree. For one thing, in his first term Obama did not always act exactly the way I wanted. I voted for him. He should have done what I wanted, but instead he did what some other people wanted. He even attempted certain things that people who voted against him wanted, claiming he represented them, too. Summing up,  in his first term all that President Obama did was avert a worldwide depression, found medical care for nearly every American who lacked it, and end the balmy war against Iraq. Piffling stuff. He'd better make the next four years count, or history will rank him below James Buchanan.
