Obama is an ineffective consensus builder and negotiator.
Nothing to do with the question, try again.
Everything to do with the question. If the great compromiser wanted a jobs bill he would have reached across the aisle to make it happen.
Instead he dictated the legislation.
Consensus building among stakeholders is a key component of leadership.
The bill went in the right direction but didn't go far enough. I believe there should be more taxes on imports even if they are "American" manufacturers, making the item more profitable to make in the US. The republicans might not have liked that, but that's where it should have gone.
