What do you think Obama's Legacy will be?

I would like to read the results here but thought it may be more interesting here in the gulch anyway.

    I think his legacy is the destruction of achievement to a large degree.

    In the last 6 years I have seen a huge move to reward everyone in schools and in life. My son won 3rd place in a regional wrestling event. He got a medal and was very excited for his reward. Then at the end of the match they gave every kid a participation medal (he is 9).

    The medal went from being valued by him as an achievement to having no value at all. It was in the trash two days latter. I pulled it out and we talked about it.

    Obama has done great harm in bringing the idea of "You did not build that" into our society in full force. That concept applied in many ways across the country will be his legacy, but no one will really realize its his philosophy that makes us all net zeros rather than those that achieve great.

    Probably shouldn't answer this for another two years, buuuut... I'd say his legacy will be the first president voted in for the color of his skin, and not the content of his character who killed the American dream.
