Obama Previews His Jobs Speech- Full Video

Standing outside of a General Motors plant that might have been shuttered without his action, President Obama previews the speech he will give on Thursday to a joint session of Congress about jobs. He gets a warm reception from the Labor Day crowd in Detroit, Michigan.

President Obama told the crowd
"On Thursday, we?re going to lay out a new way forward on jobs to grow the economy and put more Americans back to work right now. I don?t want to give everything away right here, because I want you all to tune in on Thursday -- (applause) -- but Iapos;ll give you just a little bit. (Applause.)

"We?ve got roads and bridges across this country that need rebuilding. We?ve got private companies with the equipment and the manpower to do the building. We?ve got more than 1 million unemployed construction workers ready to get dirty right now. There is work to be done and there are workers ready to do it. Labor is on board. Business is on board. We just need Congress to get on board. Let?s put America back to work. "

@TorrianS Well , it has a lot to do with history, and the people that run, Obama , bush , and all bought poloticians, they have a plan, you and I are just slaves for them and nothing else. They use the police and the military as minions to get the hard shoveling work done. Look around you you are losing more freedom all the time, drones now in the sky regular police outfitted like mililtary. TSA on the highways, camps for civil disobedience, you can now be arrested , no jury no trial.
