Thanks, Obama

Publications begin assessments of Barack Obama's presidency:

Derek Thompson at The Atlantic looks at Obama's efforts to bring "the stubborn forces of economic inequality to something of standstill."

Jonathan Chait in New York asks Obama to name five critical days in Obama's presidency. (And New York provides a timeline of significant events since January 2009.)

David A. Graham at The Atlantic discusses Obama and race.

Vann R. Newkirk II at The Atlantic calls Obamacare Obama's "biggest contribution to American policy."

But Chait in New York calls Obamacare "Obamacare Is a Policy Triumph and a Political Failure."
