I'm sure Obama deserves most if not all of the credit. It's like the economy where a president's policies don't start having an effect until the next guy takes office.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

What really bothers me about all this is how childish congress is acting. I am not excusing the republicans either, they had control for 2 years and wasted it.
We elected congress to govern our country, makes laws, and DO something. Instead for the last 3 years all they have done is bicker and fight about nonsense that I bet they don't even believe themselves. We have seen over and over how the same people who complain about how bad we are treating illegal aliens were themselves all for tighter border control, against sanctuary cities, etc. In other words, they just take the opposite view of the President, just so they can complain and argue. And in the meantime, nothing gets done. [which, thinking about it, might be a good thing]
They complain about immigration, healthcare, the economy, etc, but that's all they do. They don't actually legislate anything or fix anything.
They are no better than the millions of armchair quarterbacks spouting off on facebook and twitter (or tweb). But they COULD do something where we can't. That's what we elected them for. Not to fight like 5 year olds.

but considering that, couldn't we save a LOT of money and effort if we just disbanded them? After all, if they get rid of the electoral college and the states have no more sovereignty and everything is popular vote, we could just all vote for everything.

IOW, they would be sure to take the rest of us with them.
