Will Obama be remembered in the top 10 of Presidents?

In terms of policy enactments for his party, yes.  Which is why Rush had it right when he said he hoped Obama failed.  

He'll also be remembered in the top 10 in terms of health care premium costs.

He is the most divisive President of our lifetimes, never have I seen a leader villify his opposition so much

Under Obama we have the most polarized country ever, his approval ratings are nothing to write home about. He's the only President (to my knowledge) to win re-election by a smaller margin than his first election.

Under his presidency, Democrats have lost I think something like 800, maybe 900 seats at the state legislative level.  GOP Majority in the House is stronger than its been since World War II, 3 more seats and strongest since World War I.

Now, granted, much largely due to a true lack of an opposition party, Obama seems to win every policy battle. In THAT aspect, if that's what we were ranking by, he would be in the top 10.

Truman was a statesman. My biggest issue with Obama is he campaigned on a platform of bringing people together and has directed open hostility towards Republicans
