1) Great recession ended without a depression or any jobs.
2) Most Americans now have access to health insurance which is worse and more expensive than what they had before, but does cover contraception.
3) Budget deficit declines every year Thanks to the enormity of the deficit his first year.
4) Unemployment lower than at any time since the crash of 2008 since everyone left the job market because there were no jobs to be had.
5) Natural gas production at an all time high despite his best efforts to curtail it.
6) US now the #1 oil producer in the world despite his best efforts to curtail it.
7) Stock market at all time record highs despite nobody having jobs.
Foreign policy accomplishmeents:
1) Bin Laden dead supposedly.
2) Almost all other top Al Qaeda leaders dead and renamed as ISIS.
3) Ghadafi dead.
4) Greek debt crisis contained.
5) Strategic arms treaty with Russia.
6) Free trade agreement with Columbia.
7) Free trade agreement with Panama.
8) Free trade agreement with South Korea.
9) Iran faces most draconian sanctions in peacetime any country has ever faced and not fazed in the slightest.
10) US-Israel military cooperation at highest level in history especially compared to diplomatic cooperation.
11) US funds Israel’s development of Iron Dome.
12) US out of Iraq in accordance with agreement Bush signed with Al-Maliki and it falls apart.
13) US *not* in Syria and instead the U.S. goes back to its foreign policy of 1914 as the region turns to anarchy.
14) Republic of the Philippines invites US Navy back. (It had kicked us out under the first Bush.) Now there’s a foreign policy win! I bet we really really need the Phillipines.
