Was Obama a success ?

So he's played golf on average less than once a week. The work-shy scum. Even POTUS deserves some down time (or perhaps, especially POTUS).

Doesn't Dubya still convincing hold the record for amount of vacation time taken?

Feck me, why have you got to take everything so darned seriously?

Not the saviour of mankind some idiots (including the Nobel Peace Prize committes) thought he'd be. Would someone else as president done any better? I doubt it.

Will Trump be the unmitigated disaster that the idiots who thought Obama was the saviour think he'll be? I doubt it.

Looks like Obama is a fair way down the scale.

Bit of a mixed bag achievement wise but presidents can have their policy desires hamstrung by others. That said, his success in equality for Americans in terms of gender and orientation was good, while he failed in the Crimea. Obamacare is controversial but there needs to be some sort of revision of health care provision in America.

A good public speaker, very much an appeaser but not in the weak Neville Chamberlain way. Interesting stance on their space policy to ditch going back to the moon (if they ever went ) in favour of Mars.

I would say Obama was weak in foreign affairs, he let Russia and China get away with far too much.
But his greatest achievement was making some decisive steps to fix the US economy when it was on the verge of meltdown when he took office in 2008. Not all those stpes were popular but he did what he had to do.
Also he was hamstrung by Republican coontrol of the House.

Would any president have done any better without a majority in both houses? At least the Mayor of Trumpton won't have that excuse.

He was a good singer and comedian. Excelled at both. Other than that, did nothing really.
