• drawing down the war in Afghanistan
• initiated one of the largest economic stimulus programs in American history
  • created more than 500,000 private-sector jobs in the last two months alone
  • lowered the unemployment rate from a high of 10% to 8.3%
• universal health-care reform
• the turnover and recovery of the domestic car industry
• increased regulation of Wall Street in light of the banking collapse of 2008
• new consumer protections in the credit card industry
• preservation of net neutrality
• the greatest increase in wildlife resources in 15 years
• major reform to college student aid
• a new START treaty with Russia
• the end of the military “don’t ask, don’t tell” program
• implementation of a $1.2 trillion deficit reduction plan
• brought the end of Osama bin Laden
• assisted in the end of Mohamar Qaddafi’s regime
• promoted the Arab Spring revolutions without getting the U.S. military involved
