Here's what I think the history books will write, not saying it will be all truly Obama's doing or that they're great accomplishments:

1. Bin Laden

2. Saving the banks and therefore our financial system

3. Image abroad -though I think this tide is turning

4. I think his admin will be seen as the one that pivoted from a middle east centric foreign policy to an asian one

5. Got rid of Bush era restrictions of stem cell research

6. Same sex equality

7. Ending war in Iraq, drawing Afghanistan to a close.
