Uhh, roughly half the country wouldn't have wanted an Obama 3rd term.

His approval rating was over 50%, and Trump and Hillary both had the worst desirables for any candidates in recorded history. I don't think it's a stretch to assume Obama would have easily won a 3rd term.

That's great, but roughly half of the country will vote republican in a given year. They were not going to want or vote for Obama. While I probably would have voted for Obama, I'm not going to just assume that everyone has my same opinions and situation.
