Last update December 4, 20171 Comment

Barack Obama owes Americans 800,000 jobs to make up for the stunt he pulled last Friday and to create opportunities for his 800,000 DREAMers. With job creation averaging just over 100,000 for the past three months, this means that the president is going to have to pull off a feat rivaling his self-proclaimed victory over our second Great Depression.
