Has Obama Done Anything He Said He Would Do?

It seems like all presidents make lots of promises during election time of course but don't deliver as much as they promise. But I also thin that Obama never intended to keep any of his promises.

US out of Afghanistan and Iraq

Gitmo to close and detainees to get actual trials (not military tribunals)

Repeal of "Don't ask, Don't tell"

Universal healthcare through singlepayer system like expanding medicare (yeah I know that is a stretch)

We will see what the rest of the 3 and 1/2 years brings. I still have hope but it's starting to seem like politics as usual.
