With the recent transition of power in the presidency, it's time to thank Obama for all the amazing things he accomplished during his 8 years in office.

1. He has helped to break many molds that different races may face

Not only was he the first African-American president of the United States, but he also nominated the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor.

2. The Affordable Care Act

This health insurance plan has proven to be incredibly successful, and as Obama said in his farewell speech, he would support any plan that does a better job insuring Americans across the country. Right now, almost 17 million more Americans have health insurance than before Obamacare.

3. "Love won"

In Obergefell v. Hodges, same sex marriage was finally declared a fundamental right. This is a monumental court case that will be remembered and valued forever!

4. Job creator extraordinaire

There was a 12.8% increase in jobs over Obama's two terms in office. That means he created over 17 million jobs. But, that doesn't even show his full accomplishments. During the 2008 financial crisis, 8.7 million jobs were lost, and citizens continued to become unemployed until 2010. Since that low point, Obama has created 22.3 million jobs, which is a 17% increase.

5. He had one of the most iconic friendships ever

Who doesn't love the Obama-Biden friendship?

6. Michelle

The work she has done by empowering women, promoting healthier lifestyles, and encouraging girls to stay in school, has made huge differences for our country. She's a pretty good dancer too:

Thank you Obama, you will be missed!
