(Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Tuesday there were a range of policy options available that could create up to a million new U.S. jobs, in remarks ahead of a major economic speech that he will deliver next week.
Obama must boost growth and bring down unemployment to be confident of winning another White House term in the November 2012 general election. Economists are skeptical he will get Congress to agree to significant new spending on jobs.
"We don't have magic bullets, but what we do have, I think, is the capacity to do some things right now that would make a big difference," Obama said in a interview with popular radio talkshow host Tom Joyner.
The White House says details of the job creation proposals Obama will unveil next week are still being worked out and it has yet to announce an exact date or location for his speech, although Obama hinted at some of the ideas he would put forth.

One million jobs bouyed by our tax dollars today; one millions workers on the public dole tomorrow when “other people’s money” runs out.
Can it get anymore absurd.probably.
... but my congress won’t let me!
LOL! Would you buy a used car from this man?
Who can forget Dapper Dan, “the used car man”, whose motto was “I’d give them away, but my wife won’t let me”.
Because it wasn’t an election year and people still had time left on their 99 weeks of UI!
‘zackly.
Sure, it could happen. Obama COULD resign, that might very well create 1 million jobs.
These people are losers. None of them pass the "permanent loss of electricity test"; none of them.
One million new jobs .......NOT EVEN IN OBAMA’S WET DREAMS !!
Someone please book Air Force One for 2 trips to Kenya on January 21, 2013 .....one for Lazy Fat Azz and the other for Ozinga-the-Great ....it is obvious they don’t travel together anymore !!
The Brown Clown strikes again.
The next job this commie creates will be his first.
Pray for America
If he could, or can do this, why has he not? What is keeping him? He had both House and Senate under Dem control for 2 years, and what did he do? The stupid Obamacare which everyone hates.
Translation: We the government need to invest a few trillion more of your dollars. Spread the wealth around.
And now it's $4 trillion, thanks to the incompetent, destructive, anti-American, narcissistic, union-lapdog Obozo.
“George Bush left us a $1 trillion deficit”
This line is beyond pathetic at this point. Your average CEO of a small company would never say things like this, they just deal with it.
He’s resorting to the tactics of an affirmative action beneficiary who has been exposed as unable to hack it on the job. Zero personal responsibility....it’s always outside forces conspiring against him.
Americas will accept this liberal crap forced upon us to a certain point, but we are aware, and they reached too far. Americans won’t tolerate this crap any longer.
