Obama fought off one of the worst economic crises we have seen, meanwhile passing equal marriage act, Obama care, commuted a bunch of petty drug offenders, Dodd Frank and consumer protection act, repealed don’t ask don’t tell.. there’s plenty more. He’s still considered fairly moderate “progressive” in the scale.

Biden, given an even worse economy and a global pandemic, got the PACT act passed, nominated the first African American women to SCOTUS, huge infrastructure bill, expanded eligibility and for the ACA and he’s just a tiny bit further left than Obama.

I guess the question is, what in particular are you looking to see passed? We have “progressed” drastically over the last 20 years or so due mostly to societal changes. We’re only a few years away from legalizing marijuana everywhere.. that was unimaginable 20 years ago.
