This is bit surprising development in his home state even considering that DGP is seen as a disgraced politician (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?433586-Majority-of-Americans-now-believe-Obama-is-quot-dishonest-and-untrustworthy) by many of his critics across America.
It is fakish news source but this story appears to be legit:

This bill would have easily passed had Hillary succeeded in breaking the glass ceiling (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?501222-Obama-angrily-berates-black-caucus-You-insult-my-legacy-if-you-don-t-turn-out-for-Clinton&).. unfortunately Trump happened.

Obama's legacy and propsects for a US national holiday on his birthday appear to be very murky now.

Chances of Obama's birthday being made a national or state holiday have got slimmer now.

All is not lost though:

Obama Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Obama Day is a holiday celebrated in Kenya on November 2008 in honor of Barack Obama's victory in the United States presidential election, 2008.[1][2]
Shortly after the U.S. election result was announced, Kenyan president Mwai Kibaki declared the holiday, because Obama's father, Barack Obama, Sr., was Kenyan.[3]

Oooh! Airport! Midway needs a name.

There is a raod near White House where cops shot unarmed black mother Miriam Carey without due process of law, that road could be named after him.


But if this is confirmed, there is as much chance of anything named after him as was Nixon's legacy being honored:
