I agree with everything that Pickup said. It's not just a continuation of the Bush doctrine, but the significant increase in drone use. In fact I'll claim that there is no real substantive difference between the administrations in any endeavor. Obama's second term is the fourth term for George W. Bush.
I was enamored with the promise of transparency which would have forced some accountability; however, I believe things are worse with the constant evasion and attempts to manipulate the media.
What bothers me the most is the continuation of the perpetual campaigning. Nobody is willing to work to solve problems, only to continue demonization for the sake of scaring up votes. With effort we could pass meaningful pragmatic legislation in one congressinal term that would reform current immigration, tax, communication, healthcare and corporate governance law. In addition we could enact responsible energy and education guidelines.
