Moral Persuader
Obama's theme of change also encompassed changes in public policy.
On the domestic side, Obama proposed a major health care reform; and policies to reshape the economy and increased taxes for top income earners, combined with tax cuts for lower-income individuals.
On foreign policy and national security, he favored reducing troop levels in Iraq as quickly as possible and placing more emphasis on winning the war in Afghanistan.
How Obama used his platform to advocate his agenda:
- The Clean Power Plan
- policy aimed at combating anthropogenic climate change.
- designed to lower the CO2 emitted by power generators.
- The Tax Relief,Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010
- helped fuel job creation.
- Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
- Obamacare.. Together with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 amendment, it represents the U.S. healthcare system's most significant regulatory overhaul and expansion of coverage since the passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965.
Obama's eight years in the White House, including on issues such as the economy, race relations, and the level of confidence the public has in different aspects or actors in the government. Many of these changes were the result of social and cultural forces.
Legalizing gay marriage, a clear majority of 61% believed such marriages should be valid throughout the country.
In Obama's final year in office, a record 60% of Americans said marijuana should be legal. In 2009, by contrast, that figure stood at 44%. most tracking indicators relating to the economy showed marked improvement from 2009 to 2016.

Crisis Manager
just kidding. now a message from our sponsor:
Crisis Manager
- Obama has saved us all
- unaccompanied minors crossing the Southwest border skyrocketed.
- Immigration courts faced a significant backlog and the Department of Homeland Security was running low on funds to house and transport the kids.
- Obama and Senate Democrats correctly ignored GOP legislative proposals that would have caused more harm than good. Instead, the administration created a major public relations campaign to inform families in El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala that their children would not be allowed to stay in the U.S.
- By the end of the summer, the number of kids crossing the border had fallen dramatically and the crisis had disappeared.
