It’s Nice, But The Judges Haven’t Had Their Breakfast Yet

NBC News reports on an early statement on the Obama Administration:

Barack Obama ranks as the 12th best leader in U.S. presidential history, according to a new survey of 91 presidential historians conducted by C-SPAN.

The panel placed the 44th president just below Woodrow Wilson and just above James Monroe.

I think Obama will end up even higher – but I think there’s little point in taking this survey seriously. First, there just hasn’t been time to adequately analyze and digest Obama’s policies and their results; second, some of the results of his policies will not be apparent for years or decades – case in point, the Iran nuclear deal. Perhaps in two decades it’ll be time to analyze its final results – and reorder the list in that light.

But now? Must be a slow news day on President’s Day.
