First term. While I didn't vote for Obama in 2008, I felt happy and proud the night he was first elected.
I was glad when the ACA was passed during Obama's first term. As for his second term, let the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics tell the story: in 2013, the suicide rate for US males 15-24 was 17.3 per 100,000 population-- lower than for any year from 1975 through 1998. By 2017, it had jumped to 22.8. As for the homicide rate, it reached 5.0 per 100,000 population-- the lowest since 1963. By 2016 it had jumped to 6.0-- the highest rate in over a decade.
