HP, but I find myself on his team for the wrong reasons from time to time. Not very often though.

Not a fan, but he seems like a good guy outside of politics.

Both a great man and president. I am proud of my country for electing him twice.

His run away and cry like a baby style is not something I'm a fan of. At least Clinton played ball - and won most of the time for what it's worth.

This is a rather... special interpretation of the 90s there.

Anyway, the answer is that he's an unusually non-terrible for a US president but has essentially been a failure in his position (whether those two things are related is up to you)

I share PKemp's opinion. Obama is a great man and President, and while I have issues with his policies and disagree with his style of governing, I retain a very positive opinion (considering how my usual opinion of any politician is pretty negative...)

The longer his Presidency goes on, the better of an opinion of him I have and the more convinced I am he's trying to work toward legitimately good goals. Voted FF since I think the person is, but all of his administration's Inksups (the ACA being the most prominent one, and many numerous ones on foreign policy) should not be forgotten either. (Actually pretty similar to my opinion of GWB, now that I think about it).

Long-response:

FF, but unfortunately one of the most gutless and naive ones in existence. Probably the most naive person to come in since Hayes honestly thought the Southern Democrats would treat black people like citizens.

And as he allows more and more "conservative" (actually regressive as even Reaganites would blush at some of the stuff proposed) policies through, the more my opinion lessens of his intentions.

Ask me again, and I might very well say HP for his absolute failure to implement actual healthcare, failure to get any real stimulus, and for rewarding the crooks responsible for the recession by bailing them out.

He has so much stacked against him so it's hard to blame him entirely, but he really should've just gone ahead and marginalized the GOP when he had the chance.

Short response:

FF for being better than the alternatives, and for doing some okay things economically...but he's still a war criminal.

This is essentially my position. Obama is essentially a more competent George W. Bush.
