Absolutely correct. Obama was very competent and scandal-free but he chose to pass up a once in a generation (at least) opportunity to address our multiple looming crises.

To be fair, he did accomplish major financial regulation and a major health care reform, and that wasn't "nothing". It just wasn't enough.

If by "fix...long-term structural problems" you mean help get a world war started through our inaction that resulted in the devastation of most of the advanced economies of Europe and Asia, leaving us to pick up the pieces, then yes.

The "Great Depression" was "fixed" not in the 1930's, but after WWII - and only because of WWII. What a terrible price to pay!

And what exactly where those structural problems we fixed in the 1930s? The economy suffered a collapse in 1937 steeper than the one in '29. Best performance of the decade was in the wake of the New Deal being declared unconstitutional. New Deal parties in 1938 - crushedpic.twitter.com/HihokOKGox

I think the big difference is that the crisis happened after the primary so the platform was already set and the voter had already chosen to bring back unity and fix discreet problems over reforming the institutions - and thats what Obama tried to deliver
