Safer? Not at all. Obama has continued the global war of terror initiated by George W. Bush and embarked upon foreign policy ventures that have lead to mass killings of innocent people, which will create more terrorists committed to killing Americans. He has heightened tensions with Russia and threatened to provoke a second Cold War. He has made a 'pivot to Asia' and antagonized China. We are far, far, far less safe now than we were in 2009.
More powerful? No. The U.S. has been declining in relative power since it's peak in 1945, a trend that will continue until it is surpassed by another power, as has historically been the case.
