President Obama saved the American auto industry which accounts for millions of jobs mr joe. Starting in June of 2009 the loss of 600,000 jobs each and every month for the last year of the Bush administration stopped and started climbing out of the massive hole. So he saved millions and then went on to create 15 million new jobs, a lot of them manufacturing jobs based in America. He's my hero too joe for saving America from the worst recession since the Great Depression. Really going to miss his evenhandedness and attempts to work across the aisle even though the Congressional GOP leadership swore to do everything they could to keep him and our country from succeeding. When does sedition become the label for what McConnell and his caucus did to our country for pure pig headed partisan political reasons?
