Sadly some are disappointed in this President, he is not perfect, I did not vote for a perfect man. I know of no one that is. I did not vote for a god that would transform us instantly. Change takes time and the lack of support from the GOP has hindered what he could have accomplished. Also the Racial overtones that has surrounded his Presidency is unprecedented. He is President while Black, sadly many don't like that.
You state what seems to disappoint you. What are you proud of? ACA maybe? That is helping millions of people.? Gay rights? Keeping us from the worst economic collapse since the great depression. Fighting for women's rights, VAWA and equal pay. Raising the minimum wage? No war with Syria and bringing our troops home. None of that means anything to you?

Your words.
Sorry, you are missing a huge chapter. You never read the story, that is sad. You just have talking points that I have heard time and again.
