Like really? You didn't see the difference between Obama and Bush Jr.? Come on man.
I'd also argue having a black man in the Whitehouse was a pretty big deal. Although that clearly led to the rise of the far right and Birther Trump.

That's fair, though it only happened because Dems had a supermajority at the time and they paid for it afterwards. Obama was instrumental but Congress had to do it.
And then they came within 1 vote of taking it away.
Obama was great, but the president can only do so much by themselves.
