New York Times bestseller presents a compelling argument that Barack Obama will be regarded as one of America's most accomplished presidents. Throughout his eight years in office, Obama achieved historic milestones: he rescued the economy from collapse, expanded health insurance to millions, negotiated a landmark nuclear deal with Iran, and crafted an international climate accord. He also reformed Wall Street, overhauled the education system, and advanced a new vision for racial progress. Despite facing disdain from some on the left and relentless opposition from the right, who often sought to undermine his agenda, Obama persevered. As we confront a potentially dangerous Commander in Chief, Jonathan Chait, a keen political commentator, thoroughly examines Obama's record across key policy areas—economy, environment, domestic reform, health care, race, and foreign policy—to argue that history will recognize him as one of our greatest leaders. Chait highlights why many observers overlooked significant progress amid extremist propaganda and short-term thinking. He also emphasizes that Obama’s achievements will endure despite ongoing efforts by Donald Trump and the Republicans to dismantle them. This defense of Obama’s presidency underscores both his victories and the future battles we must engage in.
