Which is why I maintain that Barack Obama was not only better than any Republican, but was so much better than any other Dem who might run

As insufficient as he was, as incapable of effecting liberation as his ideology is, Barack took us SO much further than ANY alternatives.

You wanna talk about the Overton window? Without Obama, Dems might have been a Clintonite centrist party for another 20 years.

"What's the difference between Obama center-left and Clinton?" Ummmm... expanding Medicaid rather than contracting welfare?

Ummmm... passing Dodd-Frank instead of continuing Reagan's deregulatory agenda.

And don't tell me Dodd-Frank is just a giveaway to the big banks, if it were they wouldn't have fought the rulemaking process tooth and nail

Also, idk, celebrating marriage equality rather than SIGNING DOMA.

Like listen I can't be mad at people who let their love for Obama's victims override their sense of history but also like... HISTORY!
