1. Passed Health Care Reform - Which most Americans are HOPING LIKE HELL with either be killed by the Court or repealed by his succesor;

2. Passed the Stimulus - Which, by Obama's on adviser, was an abject failure;

3. Passed Wall Street Reform - Which has been of no consequence and will not be.

4. Ended the War in Iraq - Which his predecessor had effectively done.

6. Eliminated Osama bin laden - Which was merely extraction of vengeance as he had been neutered by the previous administration.

7. Turned Around U.S. Auto Industry - Hardly. In the process he set them up for failure by allowing the unions to take the companies over, handed one off to a foreign country, and left the unions intact so we'll be faced with the same problem. And he gave Ford a "get out of jail free" card for use whenever it fails.

9. Repealed “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” - Yeah, that's something he did.

12. Reversed Bush Torture Policies - To our detriment and that of the torture victims who, now, are merely killed to keep from having to deal with the problem of interrogaton.

14. Kicked Banks Out of Federal Student Loan Program - In an effort to raise cash to fund Obamacare. Now student loans are run with the efficiency of the post office.

16. Boosted Fuel Efficiency Standards - Further taking away American freedom to drive what they want to.

18. Passed Mini Stimuli (July 22, 2010; December 17, 2010; December 23, 2011) - More waste.

22. Created Conditions to Begin Closing Dirtiest Power Plants - Totally unneccesary since the lower cost of NG makes it worthwhile for many of these plants to switch to NG anyway.

27. Achieved New START Treaty - A now routine matter that almost every president "achieves".

The guy did nothing of value. And frankly, this list is scraping the bottom of the barrel trying to find something good to say about him.
