While I generally agree with this, the personality and opinions of the President matter. Clinton, based on her history, policies, etc. is very clearly focused on issues like work-life balance, the status of children and families in a way that Obama simply is not. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see a huge push for some kind of parental leave to come out of a Hillary Clinton administration, while I feel that would be a very low-priority issue for a 3rd Obama term or a Biden administration.
