Obama is mediocre: nothing more, nothing less. First term was pretty good, considering his legislative successes and lack of major foreign policy fuckups. However the last two years haven't been going swimmingly overseas, and Republican intransigence in Congress has halted further lawmaking. He's made his point about reigning in Bush's bullshit cowboy act, now it's time to exercise a stronger hand in dealing with autocrats (hi Putin!) and other violent actors (ISIS, mainly). The economy is fine, not that anyone here would agree; though one would question a negative impression on that considering the dumpster fire that the rest of the world is currently going through. A strong dollar may not benefit our pump and dump neoliberal overlords, but it's largely a positive for the average American especially in relation to imported luxury goods.
