Obama's first 100 days

April 29, 2009 By WRN Contributor

As of Wednesday it's been 100 days since President Barack Obama took office. President Obama has set out a very ambitious agenda so far, according to UW political scientist David Canon. While Obama hasn't had as much success with Congress as Franklin Roosevelt during Roosevelt's first 100 days, Canon says it's not a fair comparison because Congress is much more polarized now than it was 75 years ago.

Canon says Obama's biggest achievement so far is passage of the economic stimulus package but says the president has also mapped out a "very ambitious agenda" on health care and energy policies.
