[Q]: (CNN) -- The Washington Post's Chris Cillizza recently gave President Barack Obama his "Worst Year in Washington" award. Indeed, Cillizza wrote that there was a growing sense among the public that "Obama simply isn't up to the job to which he was elected twice." But while it's hard to argue that Obama has not had a difficult 12 months, the notion that this President is somehow done or a lame duck just doesn't feel quite right. The fact is the office of the president is still the most dynamic change agent in our political system. And unlike Congress or the Supreme Court, which go in and out of session, the President is on 24/7, with significant power at his disposal, a point underscored by recent initiatives on immigration, climate change and Cuba.Aaron David Miller: President Obama is not the appeaser in chief his detractors claimMiller: President doubled down in Afghanistan in 2009, had Osama bin Laden killedObama is a committed internationalist, Miller saysPresident can feel the pull of wanting to leave a positive legacy, he says

[Q]: (CNN) The Marine Corps' fighting ability is undermined by the more than 30,000 active Marines and veterans involved in a private Facebook group being investigated for allegedly posting explicit photos of women in the military without their consent, a former Navy secretary told CNN on Friday. "There's no good excuse," Ray Mabus said on CNN's New Day. "The Marine motto is 'semper fidelis,' always faithful, and what these Marines did was to be unfaithful to their fellow Marines." "Marines look after each other, Marines have each other's back. Look at what the commandant of the Marine Corps said about this, this makes us a less effective fighting force," Mabus said, referring to a video statement posted Tuesday by Gen. Robert Neller.Ray Mabus: "What these Marines did was to be unfaithful to their fellow Marines"Investigation should determine how "Marines United" group developed, he said

[Q]: (CNN) -- Like Amanda Berry, who ran to freedom Monday after years in captivity, Tonia Carmichael was abducted and held by a male captor not far from her Cleveland home. Berry, whom police took to safety along with two other women they rescued from a home at 2207 Seymour Ave., could be seen healthy and beaming in a photo snapped Monday at an area hospital.
