Powell: Obama Must Focus More On Jobs

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell told NBC’s ‘Meet The Press’ on Sunday that the man he endorsed in 2008, President Barack Obana, is losing the confidence of voters.

“I think he has lost some of his ability to connect during the campaign. It’s not just me picking on the president, it’s reflected in the polling,” Powell said. “Some of the anxiety and anger that you see out there, I think, comes from a belief on the part of the American people — whether it’s correct or incorrect, and the White House would say it’s incorrect — that not enough attention (is being paid to jobs) … his singular focus should be on unemployment.”
