An unassailable case that, in the eyes of history, Barack Obama will be viewed as one of America’s best and most accomplished presidents.Over the course of eight years, Barack Obama’s administration saved the American economy from collapse, expanded health insurance to millions, negotiated an unprecedented nuclear deal with Iran, helped craft a groundbreaking international climate accord, reined in Wall Street, reformed our education system, and formulated a new vision of racial -progress. He has done all of this despite a left that frequently disdained him as a sellout, and a right that did everything possible to -destroy his agenda. Now, as the page turns to possibly the most dangerous commander in chief in our history, Jonathan Chait, one of America’s most incisive and meticulous political commentators, digs deep into Obama’s record on major policy fronts to demonstrate why history will judge our forty-fourth president as among our greatest. Chait explains why so many observers missed the enormous evidence of progress and reveals why Obama’s accomplishments will last despite the reactionary effort by Donald Trump and the Republicans to extinguish them. And in its resounding defense of Obama’s tenure, Audacity both makes clear his victories, and what we need to fight for next.
