He made organizations that helped kids education wise and organizations that helped families financially. He helped find the person who was responsible for 9/11 and brought him down. Overall he delivered what he said he was gonna do and more.

  2. Obama did his best to serve his country as the president, but now it is his turn to step down and watch as the future is shaped with or without his guidance.

  3. Obama was an amazing president in my opinion. He did what other presidents should've done but didn't want to do because of how the people felt about it. He focused on helping the poor rather than making the rich richer. Him and his wife helped the United States better than anyone ever has and probably ever will.

  4. Obama was a strong president. He help create almost 12 million jobs for Americans, took down the 9/11 terrorists, and tried to provide affordable health insurance for Americans. All in all Obama tried and accomplished a lot, even though everything wasn't perfect, he still gave everything 100%

He was able to bring free healthcare to thousands of Americans, he set laws against discrimination, he stood firm in his beliefs, and he made the entire world fall in love with him.

  9. Obama was a very strong president. I believe he brought forth many improvements to weak areas such as employment and medical care. The speech made me realize how much he has actually done for the country and how much he cares about the unity of our country.

  10. i feel like he had a strong farewell address by stating the things that he had done in which he did a lot. he was the most iconic president during his presidency by being the first African american to take office. he also delivered a message to the next president of what he should do.

  26. I personally believe that Obama was a strong and great president, he could have been even greater if the government wasn't divided he would be able to amend bills that would have solved several problems the economy has now. Obama gave the people what thy wanted and the people didn't appreciate it, he gave us the Affordable Health Care, but people hate that now, he took down Osama Bin-laden, and people now assume or say that he really wasn't the leader of terrorism but ISIS was.
    Obama has done a lot for us and i appreciate all he has done for us.

  54. Obama was an okay president. He was an irregular change in the government. He was recognized as the first black president. Although he was the first black president he did nothing for the black community so to me he was just like another president with a greater amount of melanin in him. But he did fulfill his duties while office so ill give him a thumbs up.
