Executive Powers

 
 
 Former President Bill Clinton won strong approval ratings in his final years, in large part because of those rising incomes. But while Clinton's policies may have played a role in that economic growth, luck played the larger share.
Much the same was true for President Ronald Reagan. Both presidents experienced short, sharp recessions early on and enjoyed the upswing of the business cycle later.
The same could yet prove true for Obama if the economy continues to improve. But if it does not, he at least appears to have grown more philosophical about the limits he faces.
