what did Obama really do to take us so forward other than rabblerouse and fuel riots?
You are quoting Brietbart. That lacks objectivity from the getgo.
Barack Obama was a President from the working class. So called conservatives can't stand this. It delays their agenda of reversing the New Deal. Now that Trump has given everyone presidency by electroshock, we can only list Obama's accomplishments by what Trump is trying to reverse. Let's remember that for six of Obama's eight years we were saddled which what is popularly known as the do nothing Congress.
One thing for sure is that Obama stood guard while the billionaire class got eight years older.
Obama mused that perhaps the United States was not ready for his modern presidency,
“Sometimes I wonder whether I was 10 or 20 years too early,” he said to his aides, who reassured him that he could have won a third term as president.
Obama wondered if his presidency “pushed too far” and that Americans would rather “fall back into their tribe,” as demonstrated by the presidential election.
Obama's lack of self-awareness is comical. This is a guy who, at age 24, moved to Chicago to become black. He transformed his entire lifestyle and persona for the expressed purpose falling back into his tribe. He later spent years writing an autobiography called, "Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance". He is a man obsessed with his tribe and how he fits into it.

"Tribe" huh ? Bigoted much ?
So you prefer to look up to a man who was born into money, and while other less advantaged young men were out serving this country he was laid up with a heel spur? A man who has spent his entire life cheating and demeaning every other person he came in contact with, and a man who thinks of, and treats the women in his life like dirt ?
What an arrogant thing to say! Just like Hillary, he cannot admit that America didn't want what he was selling, and that progressive liberal policies were doing us harm. Instead of looking at polls showing that 2/3 of Americans thought the country was moving in the wrong direction under his reign, he chalks it up to his being "ahead of his time."

There were no progressive liberal policies which tells me your problem lies elsewhere.
After a 30 year career in radio, film and Hollywood he was President of a large Trade Union and Governor of one of the largest states in the US and economies in the world.
That's much more experience than Obama brought to the table. Obama should have stayed in the Senate another 2 terms and he might have learned how to be an effective politician.

Yes, he was the head of a union. The despised unions.

Trump is getting very little actually passed. He is trying to accomplish every thing through the courts and executive orders. Things Obama (was correctly) condemned for.
