Absolutely not!  It can only get worse.  Obama's title of Democrat is as false as 8 years of maintaining the Corporate Oligarchy and keeping the lid on to feed the billionaire barons with bailouts and immune from prosecution.  His failure to use the power of the office to protect human and civil rights within this nation is the worst aspect of the terms.  The Bundy cases are glaring examples.  Oregon state forces actually ended the occupation while the Nevada situation continues to fester.  Any time armed thugs are allowed to prevent execution of actions against criminals, cowardice is the only glaring aspect.  In this case, the thugs are the North Dakota armed military forces assaulting and terrorizing unarmed civilians to support the same Corporate Billionaires.  The message sent clearly out is armed resistance is okay, but peaceful protest will not be allowed.  The coming fascist fuhrer-led will just see military forces used everywhere in Gestapo operations.  Peace will not exist.
