Instead he's the guy who worked to undemocratically pass the biggest corporate handout in US history, did more to destroy basic civil rights and privacy protections on the internet, and who's healthcare legacy amounted to forcing Americans to pay private middle men inflated rates for C-grade health insurance. If you look at things in terms of what could have been, he's already bitten himself in the ass. In the end when we die all that's left is our legacy. In becoming president, let alone being a black one and such a charismatic individual, he had the opportunity to do something completely special and be remembered for generations to come. Instead he threw away what will almost certainly be the penultimate 8 years of his life.
