The top 4 accomplishments seem to be the following:
1 - Bringing active Ebola cases to U.S. soil for the first time in history.
2 - Heroically doubling the national debt to $20 Trillion in just 8 years.
3 - Starting a war on police.
4 - Setting back race relations to approximately somewhere around 1850.
As we approach President's Day, I was thinking we should commemorate his finest work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I’m sure you will be hearing from him. (But don’t hold your breath).

Never mind that:
- his admin, and the EPA in particular, was hostile to the energy industry, limiting drilling on federal lands, an offshore drilling moratorium, rejection of keystone pipeline and long delays in approving permits
- he famously lectured us that 'you can't drill your way to lower prices', which has been proven spectacularly wrong
- Oil/gas output from federal lands dropped during his tenure, while output from private lands skyrocketed
- the gains in the US are almost exclusively due to private company advances in fracking and horizontal drilling
But a few weeks ago, Barry dropped this nugget:
“You wouldn’t always know it, but it went up every year I was president,” he said to applause. “That whole — suddenly America’s like the biggest oil producer and the biggest gas — that was me, people.”
That was me!
Our nation thanks you.

modern history:
"Overall, the administration has managed a record of 79-96, a win rate of just above 45 percent."
"George W. Bush achieved a record of 89-59 (60 percent)—and that’s if you fold in all of 2000-2001, including cases argued when Bill Clinton was president in what was an unusually bad term for the government (roughly 35 percent). Clinton, in turn, had an overall record of 148-87 (63 percent), again including all of 1992-1993. George H.W. Bush went 91-39 (70 percent), while Ronald Reagan weighed in with an astounding record of 260-89 (about 75 percent)."
"In 2016, the federal government argued an incredible 10 cases without gaining a single vote, not even that of one of President Obama’s own nominees, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan. That brings his total to 44 unanimous losses."
You have to be an especially stupid Constiutional lawyer to be more wrong than right. No wonder he kept his acadmic records to himself.
Does this qualify as an achievement?
