Obama: Election

We know it s not good enough, Obama told an audience in New Hampshire on Friday and wASHINGTON President Barack Obama set off Friday on the final two months of a brutal climb toward the Nov. 6 election as the country woke up to new, grim unemployment numbers and Republican challenger Mitt Romney declared, We re going in the wrong direction. Friday s campaigning was dominated by a new Labor Department report showing that U.S. employers added just 96,000 jobs last month, failing to meet expectations. The unemployment rate fell to 8.1 per cent from 8.3 per cent in July, but only because more people gave up looking for work. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
