why is/are the pundit-class(es) spending so much time talking about President Obama's "legacy", when there is little evidence that President Obama is/has done anything for the purpose of establishing a legacy.
If President Obama were attempting to secure his "legacy" would he now be talking 24/7 about the ACA, Lilly Ledbetter, the end of DADT and DOMA; rather than, pressing immigration reform, tax reform, accessibility to higher education?
I have long sensed (and said) that this President recognizes that (and operates as though) none of this is about him (i.e., a "legacy"
; but, rather, about what is needed.
