P.S. We aren't at war with Afghan, yes we are in that Country but we aren't fighting them. So no, Afghan probably isn't Obama's War.
With all due repsect, no country has ever fought a successful war in Afghanistan and if the USA was serious about destroying whatever is being fought there, such a "war" would be over with quickly. In short, a series of surgical strikes would simply take out every known or suspected position held by the targets.

The "war" in Afghanistan is not about terrorism. It is about oil, pipelines, opium and political influence.
