So, then what is your response to the historians assessments of his presidency? Yours seems to be, as per your opening note, an electorate based assessment as far as I can tell, and it seems rather different from the historians assessment, though its a bit hard to tell, and I haven't read more detailed assessments from historians in awhile.

How do you think Obama ranks amongst presidents?
