In the thread on the State of the Union address thread we had the following posts > [@State of the Union address Feb. 7, 2023](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/state-of-the-union-address-feb-7-2023/979458/63): > > People always underestimate him. They shouldn’t. In his mere 2 years, he’s been the most effective president of the last 50 years > [@State of the Union address Feb. 7, 2023](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/state-of-the-union-address-feb-7-2023/979458/125): > > This probably deserves its own thread, but hasn’t Biden in many ways been more successful than Obama? Now I like Biden alright but I don’t see that he has been more effective than Obama. His main accomplishment is the Infrastructure Bill, followed perhaps by his support for Ukraine. I think these fall short of some of Obama’s accomplishments, in particular the ACA, but also the Iran deal, and DACA. Still I would be very interested as to why others feel differently. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-biden-more-successful-than-obama-was/979564)._
