5. What we need is a jobs bill from the house. This house won't, and are blaming Obama. Congress has
Congress has the power, the legislative branch. When the dems had the house, they wrote a jobs bill to reverse the tax codes, and bring our jobs back from overseas. Four Dems in the Senate, voted against it. That is where the change needs to come. Forget the prez. He does not have their power. Soon it will be all eyes on Iowa and New Hampshire. Why? No matter who the prez it, Sen. Ben Nelson and a few others, like Mary Landrieu, will continue to vote against the dem biils that get written. A sitting president will never receive them to sign.

THIS REPUB HOUSE, IS NOT EVEN GOING TO WRITE A JOBS BILL. THEN THEY CAN BLAME OBAMA FOR NOT CREATING JOBS. See how it works? We should focus on changing the house and senate, even if that means getting rid of those dems who will vote against a jobs bill, or against ending subsidies for oil corporations. That is where the change comes from. The change comes from the legislative branch to the presidents desk.

So I don't care who the president is anymore. I will work on seats, where the work is done.

Please do that in your state.
