Obama is, IMO, the worst political figure in modern history. That's including Biden and Hillary and all of the criminals in the W. Bush administration.
I think Obama is only worse than Hillary because she never got the level of power he did. If she had won in 2008 or 2016, she would have easily eclipsed him and basically anyone else.
Obama had some level of charisma when given sufficient preparation. Hillary got less likable when they prepped her for PR events. And she still almost managed to win the 2016 election because the establishment Republicans wouldn't run anyone with the combination of charisma and policies to beat her. An old New York Democrat (and former friend of the Clintons) had to run as a Republican to beat her, and the establishment Republicans were pissed, because they'd rather have an establishment Democrat (and one of the worst ones, at that) in office than a Republican they didn't control.

And I say that as someone who voted for him.

No disagreement here. She was limited by her opportunity to be awful.
