President Obama’s Political Party

How did President Obama
lead his political party? Presidential leadership does not just end with leading the
nation or public, it also is part of building up political parties. Did Obama
build his party into a stronger and more organized political party for future
elections and administrations, or did they engage in the act of predation of their political
party with long term consequences of weakening it for future elections and
administrations? A strong response paper will define and apply Daniel Galvins concepts
of party building and party predation to the Trump or Obama presidency, and bring in
outside news sources as support.
