As President Obama’s second term in the Oval Office nears its end, the Heritage Foundation, a US conservative think tank, attempts to assess the record he leaves behind, and comes to the conclusion that “by every objective measure, the nation has received a meager return on the defense dollars invested by Mr. Obama’s Pentagon.”

“In assessing the president’s legacy, historians will have plenty of legitimate topics to tussle over,” Heritage Foundation Vice President, James Jay Carafano, wrote in his article in The National Interest magazine. “But there are no criteria for measuring presidential power that suggest he ranks as a talented commander-in-chief. Quite the contrary.”

Carafano then went on to detail every area where the US president has apparently failed.

“Barack Obama Ended Two Wars?” – No. “Today, American military assistance is flowing into — not out of Iraq.”

The author debunks the claim that the 44th President of the US has succeeded in the wars his country fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. In fact, he says, the countries are in “far worse shape that when Obama entered the Office.”

“This claim rests on the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq and the drawdown of American forces in Afghanistan. Neither action ended a war,” he says.
