On August 25, after a short trip to Baton Rouge to assess flooding in Louisiana and before what will likely be his last visit to China on Air Force One, Barack Obama sat down at the White House to reflect on the past eight years. He led America through a period of dramatic, convulsive change — an era that New York Magazine explores this week in its cover story. Before his conversation with Jonathan Chait, he chose five moments that, he believes, will have outsized historical impact. Here is their conversation in full.
Comments
This is an extensive piece, and Obama is his usual rather professorial, yet thoughtful self - precisely why it's so worth the read.
It's been a very long eight years.

Thanks for linking to it.
I am saving it as a reference. It provides a clear context for many disputed events.
