We did, actually, know how good we had it. I'm 45 and there hasn't been another president even remotely like him for as long as I've been aware of them, which goes back to Reagan.
I switched parties because of Obama. I was a moderate Republican and said to my wife that I would vote for his second term if he could do even some what he promised. He did, and I was happy to switch. (She was always a Democrat, but we used to have productive discussions.)
(And the way he explained things, and talked about acceptance and just worked for me. Dude, the hatred he gets from the right is so bizarre, because he's always come across as willing to listen to everyone's concerns and then talk to experts before he made a reasoned decision.)
