I thought he was. Certainly the ACA was a significant benefit to the US. But his post-presidency life deeply disappointed me. Unlike Carter, who dedicated himself to Habitat for Humanity, Obama cashed in--million dollar speeches, Netflix and Spotify deals, etc. Then his Covid birthday bash...
He’s not Jimmy Carter, true, but let’s not demonize him for being different and choosing a different path, after all he is a young man and not sure is easy to find your way after being the president of the United States
I don't feel like I'm demonizing him. Just being honest that I'm personally disappointed by his actions post-presidency, which--to me--seem more profit-focused than people-focused.
But look at what he’s building on the south side of Chicago. Very good things may come from there. And the Netflix deal has produced some excellent work.
