Going down as the worst president in history is a legacy, right?

Via Washington Secrets:

President Obama is scrambling for a legacy and fast, revealing in Democratic fundraisers this week that his goal is a record that the next generation will applaud.

At a stop in Atherton, Calif., on Thursday, for example, the president said, “I think the most important thing is that when you don’t have another race to run, all you’re really thinking about it is how do I leave a legacy, not simply for the next president, but for the next generation that makes America stronger?”

But time is short, he fretted at a fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee. “You end up taking the long view on things. And you also feel a great urgency because you know you don’t have a lot of time,” said Obama.
