WASHINGTON, DC— In this week's address, US-President Barack Obama highlighted the work of the new independent consumer watchdog he fought to create, which stands up for consumers and protects Americans from mistakes made by the companies who determine your credit scores.


Republicans in Congress have tried to roll back consumer protections that help prevent big banks from creating another financial crisis, but the President refuses to let that happen and will continue to fight for working Americans as we move this country forward.

If you have a complaint about your credit score that hasn't been properly addressed, you can go to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau :

and let the consumer watchdog know.

US-President Barack Obama on His Birth Certificate & the Real Issues Facing America

In 2008, in response to media inquiries, the US-President Barack Obama campaign requested his birth certificate from the state of Hawaii.

The state sent the campaign the President's birth certificate, the same legal documentation provided to all Hawaiians as proof of birth in state, and the campaign immediately posted it on the internet. That birth certificate can be seen here as a PDF:

http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/rss_viewer/birth-certificate.pdf

When any citizen born in Hawaii requests their birth certificate, they receive exactly what the President received. In fact, the document posted on the campaign website is what Hawaiians use to get a driver's license from the state and the document recognized by the Federal Government and the courts for all legal purposes. That's because it is the birth certificate. This is not and should not be an open question.

The President believed the distraction over his birth certificate wasn't good for the country. It may have been good politics and good TV, but it was bad for the American people and distracting from the many challenges we face as a country. Therefore, the President directed his counsel to review the legal authority for seeking access to the long form certificate and to request on that basis that the Hawaii State Department of Health make an exception to release a copy of his long form birth certificate.

They granted that exception in part because of the tremendous volume of requests they had been getting.

President Obama discusses the release of his long form birth certificate, having long ago released his standard birth certificate, and says that "We've got big problems to solve. And I'm confident we can solve them, but we're going to have to focus on them -- not on this."

US-Foreign Policy: US- President Obama's Strong and Steady Leadership vs. Romney's Blunder and Bluster


US-Foreign Policy:  US-President Obama's Strong and Steady Leadership vs. Romney's Blunder and Bluster

 




In a series of interviews,



Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright,




Senator John Kerry,




Admiral John Nathman (ret.),




and

Former Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Michèle Flournoy




explain why Mitt Romney is not prepared to be commander-in-chief.


They each lay out how US-President Obama's leadership has made America stronger, safer and more secure while Mitt Romney has nothing to offer except bluster, chest-thumping, and a commitment to endless war.


As Monday's debate will demonstrate, blunder and bluster are no substitute for strong leadership.

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner : "U.S. Pledges Continued Support for Global Agriculture" | IIP Digital

By MacKenzie C. Babb | Staff Writer | 16 October 2012

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner has worked closely with other Obama administration officials to support agriculture and strengthen food security around the world.

Washington — The United States will contribute up to $475 million to the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP), promising to give $1 for every $2 committed by other donors.

US-Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner announced the additional U.S. support for GAFSP October 12 during the International Monetary Fund and World Bank Annual Meetings in Tokyo.

“The United States is demonstrating once again its commitment to lead the global fight against hunger and malnutrition,” Geithner said at an event co-hosted by Japan and the World Bank.

The secretary called on donors from around the world to join in strengthening the GAFSP with additional financial support. Japan and South Korea responded by each pledging $30 million at the event. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation also announced its intention to contribute additional resources.

“By investing in GAFSP, we will mobilize funding from a diverse range of sources and set into motion innovative programs that will help communities become more self-sufficient, farmers increase their productivity, and families climb out of poverty,” Geithner said, according to an October 15 Treasury Department news release.

The release by department spokeswoman Kara Alaimo said the United States spearheaded the creation of GAFSP in the wake of the 2007–2008 food price crisis to help the world's poorest farmers grow and earn more so they can lift themselves out of poverty. 

The program is already delivering results by supporting both public and private investments in agriculture, providing critical support in 18 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America, the release said.

In Sierra Leone, for example, GAFSP financing has underwritten the delivery of improved extension services to farmers to help them boost yields in staple crops. 

The fund also has financed the rehabilitation of 250 kilometers of rural roads in Togo to better connect farmers to local markets, and has provided 18,000 farmers with better access to improved seed varieties and fertilizer.

“With nearly 1 billion chronically hungry people around the planet, there is a strong moral reason for investing in agriculture,” Treasury’s Alaimo said. “But there is good economic reason as well.”

The department said investments in agriculture have been shown to be two to four times more effective at reducing hunger and poverty than investments in any other sector.

GAFSP is part of President Obama’s broader food security initiative, Feed the Future. 

The Obama administration has made strengthening food security around the world a U.S. development priority.

US-President Obama: "One Million American Jobs Saved and America has a Stronger American Auto Industry" The White House

WASHINGTON, DC—In his weekly address, President Obama talked about his decision to rescue the American auto industry from collapse and save more than one million American jobs. Some were calling to let Detroit go bankrupt, but the President refused; now the industry is leading the world again and auto sales are the highest they’ve been in more than four years. In the coming years, new American cars will have higher fuel standards, which is good for the pocketbooks of middle class families and the environment. And thanks to the President’s bipartisan trade agreements, we are selling more American cars in places like South Korea. The auto industry demonstrates that when Americans are knocked down, we get back up and come back stronger than before.

  Remarks of President Barack Obama
Weekly Address
The White House
October 13, 2012

President Barack Obama: Hi, everybody.

Every year around this time, American car companies start rolling out their newest, shiniest models, hoping to entice you into buying one. 

It’s Detroit’s chance to show you what they’ve been working on – the latest and greatest. And this year is no exception. They’ve got some pretty good-looking cars coming out. 

But something is different this time around – and it starts with the auto companies themselves.

Just a few years ago, the auto industry wasn’t just struggling – it was flatlining. 

GM and Chrysler were on the verge of collapse. 

Suppliers and distributors were at risk of going under. 

More than a million jobs across the country were on the line – and not just auto jobs, but the jobs of teachers, small business owners, and everyone in communities that depend on this great American industry.

But we refused to throw in the towel and do nothing. We refused to let Detroit go bankrupt. We bet on American workers and American ingenuity, and three years later, that bet is paying off in a big way.

Today, auto sales are the highest they’ve been in more than four years. 

GM is back. 

Ford and Chrysler are growing again. 

Together, our auto industry has created nearly a quarter of a million new jobs right here in America.

And we’re not just making more cars and trucks – we’re making better ones.

After 30 years of inaction, we raised fuel standards so that by the middle of the next decade, cars and light trucks will average almost 55 miles per gallon – nearly double what they get today. That means you’ll only have to fill up every two weeks instead of every week. It’s good for your wallet, it’s good for our economy, and it’s good for the environment.

The technology that makes it happen will also help America stay on the cutting edge for decades to come. Just this week, GM announced they plan to hire 1,500 workers for a new research center in Michigan to help make sure the high-tech cars of tomorrow are designed and built right here in America.

I’ve also signed new bipartisan trade agreements into law, because I want to see more cars on the road in places like South Korea imported from Detroit and Toledo and Chicago.

All of this is something the American people can and should be proud of. It’s a reminder that when the American people put their mind to something, there’s nothing we can’t do.

So next time you see one of those brand new 2013 models on TV or on the lot, think about how far we’ve come together. 

Think about how – thanks to the hard work and can-do spirit of the American people – more of those cars and trucks are being manufactured by American workers at American companies in communities all across the country. And they’re going to save you more money at the pump.

That’s what America is all about. When we get knocked down, we get back up. We come back stronger. And as long as I’m President, that’s what we’ll keep doing.

Thanks, and have a great weekend.
