ANOTHER TOP TEN LIST FROM BARACK OBAMA

We continue our series of "Top Ten" lists - - - the "Greatest Hits" of Barack Obama - - - taken from the web site "Please Cut The Crap", which lists 400 accomplishments of the first openly bi-racial President. Each claim comes with a link that allows you to check out the basis of the claim.

Don't let the "Fake News History Team" re-write the story of what actually happened under the Obama Administration. It was truly one of the best periods of modern American life, despite the continual efforts of the Republican Elite Class to distort the picture. Trump inherits a peaceful nation with a steadily growing economy. If the status quo is not maintained, the fault is with Trump, not Obama.


Specific Examples of Economic Improvement

As of October 2016, a record 73 consecutive months of overall job growth. http://on.msnbc.com/1TKFCPQ

As of August 2016, Unemployment drops below 5% for the first time in eight years and without a significant bubble, remains below 5% all year so far. 4.9% http://on.msnbc.com/1TKFCPQ

As of October 2016, there have been 80 consecutive months of private sector job growth. http://1.usa.gov/1Xhizho

In April 2016, new unemployment claims hit their lowest level since 1973. As of September 2016, they remain at 43-year lows. That means lower than at any time during Saint Reagan’s Administration. http://yhoo.it/2eaIPbf http://nyti.ms/1YhZEBk,

Since February 2010, when unemployment peaked, 15.6 million non-farm private sector jobs have been created. http://1.usa.gov/1Xhizho

Contrary to GOP rhetoric, most of the new jobs created have been full-time, not temporary. http://bit.ly/2dF7pjO
