| Nota di contenuto | Obama’s Legacy -- Copyright -- Introduction -- CHAPTER 1: Obama’s Legacy -- From the Affordable Care Act to the opening of relations with Cuba, Obama will leave behind a legacy of liberal achievement -- CHAPTER 2: The First Black President -- Some initially heralded his victory as the arrival of a “post-racial” America -- In 2015, President Obama and others marked the 50th anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” in Selma, Ala. -- A sign of both the digital age and his blackness, Obama has remixed the image of the American presidency -- Celebrated by some for racial progress, Obama’s presidency has also drawn racial backlash. Many supporters think he’s faced an unprecedented level of ridicule. -- In a 2013 trip to Africa, leaders and residents feted Obama as a native son and a symbol of hope -- Obama’s crusade against a criminal justice system devoid of ‘second chances’ -- CHAPTER 3: Commander in Chief -- Obama as commander in chief: Two experts offer opposing views -- For one Washington Post staff writer — a Marine infantryman at the time — the surge in Afghanistan was personal -- A wartime president struggles with the hard questions -- From Syria to San Bernardino, the rise of the Islamic State remakes the terrorism equation -- With his reliance on drones, Obama embraced a deadly, high-altitude, secretive war -- CHAPTER 4: Obama’s America -- Obama rescued the economy. Could he have done more? -- Obama’s legislative legacy comes down to this question: What if? -- After Obama’s reelection, the environment became a top priority -- Guns, grief and gridlock: Time and time again, President Obama addressed a nation in mourning -- CHAPTER 5: Obama and the World -- Obama’s foreign policy of restraint was both pragmatic and problematic -- Although much of the world still views Obama favorably, the dominant emotion in the Middle East is disappointment -- A renewed relationship with Cuba was one of the administration’s signature achievements -- Despite hopes of a strong partnership between the U.S. and China, a rocky relationship persisted -- President Obama put his frequent-flier miles where his mouth was: Asia -- Obama’s presidency brought a dramatic upward shift in America’s reputation around the world |
