U.S. President Barack Obama talks about jobs and the economy during a campaign speech at Cuyahoga Community College in Ohio
Obama frames the choice confronting voters' this fall as one of the future direction of the country, not a referendum on the state of the economy. He acknowledges that the economy is not where it needs to be, but says he believes Mitt Romney's recipe for growth is wrong. Obama says the only way for the economy to recover is to have a strong and prosperous middle class. He emphasizes the refusal of Republicans to pass any economic plans that involved raising taxes for the wealthy.
