“It should be a useful reminder to people all across the country that given where we started back in 2008, we have made enormous strides, thanks to the incredible hard work of the American people and American businesses that have been out there competing, getting smarter, getting more effective,” he said.


quote:

“But we can make even more progress if Congress is willing to work with my administration and to set politics aside, at least occasionally, which I know is what the American people are urgently looking for.”

based on the number of people he classifies as leaving the workforce, he is correct

Just because the growth is consistent doesn't mean that it's positive.

Obama does positive things for the economy and all he gets is grief. You people can't be taken seriously.

He'd have to quit. Face it, without the Fed, this whole economy would be in a depression....We'll still probably be in a recession before he leaves, even after throwing 10 Trillion dollars at it....

You, sir, cannot be taken seriously. You choose to close your eyes to the dubious nature of the stated claims.

Obama just flat out MADE UP "We have not seen more consistent job growth since the ’90s,”

You want HIM taken seriously?

He's got a job when he leaves office...speaking engagements for millions of dollars. He needs to get his arse out into the real world.
