 Qualifying the Obama
leader's economy, by
numbers
at the end of Obama's term , the overall economy
continues to expand — slowly. As of the first quarter
of this year, the U.S. economy is nearly 15 percent
bigger than when the president took office in 2008,
adjusted for inflation.
That gain is slightly less than his
predecessor, George W. Bush, and roughly half
 the GDP gain in percentage terms during the
Reagan administration.

Great figure that ratified him as an economic leader.
