I am convinced that the remainder of President Obama's term will be peppered [View all]

with distractions, some embellished and some generated by the media and the Republicans. One good thing is that legacy is no longer dependent on textbooks from Texas, but a researching generation will be able to use technology to remind them of the obstructions that he faced daily. Some of those things come with the job but the majority of them come with being a minority in the White House.
