Obama is a good leader, because he is trying to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor. A wide gap between the rich and the poor is never good. We can look back into history to see this. For example, in the Tang Dynasty, the rich got out of their taxes, so the poor had to pay more, which widened the gap. The dynasty soon fell. While it may not be working completely yet, Obama is doing all he can to fix this problem.
Side note: This is a very democratic stance on American politics, however it is more of a democratic question, as Obama is a democrat.
Generally speaking, both the Enlightenment and American Revolution changed the way people viewed their relationship to their rulers in that they began to question the ultimate power and supremacy of a monarch, simply because he or she was born into the position.

In 1794 and 1796, Jefferson freed two male slaves; they had been trained and were qualified to hold employment.Most historians believe that after the death of his wife Martha, Jefferson had a long-term relationship with her half-sister, Sally Hemings, a slave at Monticello. jefferson allowed two of Sally Hemings's surviving four children to "escape"; the other two he freed through his will. In 1824, Jefferson proposed a national plan to end slavery by the federal government purchasing African-American slave children for $12.50, raising and training them in occupations of freemen, and sending them to the country of Santo Domingo. In his will, Jefferson also freed three other men.In 1827, the remaining 130 slaves were sold to pay the debts of Jefferson's estate
