Unemployment lowest since March of 2009

The unemployment rate has fallen to 8.6%- the lowest since March of 2009.

Is this because the economy is growing? Or is it because so many unemployed people have given up looking?

The answer is some of each. But one thing is sure: while I am not a fan of President Obama, I would rather see him re-elected because the economy recovers than defeated because it doesn't.

And so should every American, regardless of party or political philosophy.
