Are Americans naive when it comes to asking the president for more jobs?

I mean let’s be honest. Unless we get an updated, “New Deal” like Roosevelts New Deal there isn’t going to be much of a boom. What is it that Americans are hoping for when they ask the president for more American jobs. The evolution of globalization and its ever expanding role on our lives are having businesses favor cheaper labor across seas. It has always been this way since the beginning of trade. There aren’t much businessmen who believe in morals or branding the USA as the top notch country anymore. It’s all about expanding and outsourcing. China’s doing it too now. They are outsourcing in Africa, Italy, Tijuana amongst others.
My point is the reality is I don’t believe there will ever be a job surge created by any president moving forward. It’s the citizens jobs to create jobs. The rich have to become creative and figure out a way to make new jobs instead of sitting on their wealth. But then again they don’t have to do that. I just believe everyones holding their own at the moment.
So us asking the president to create new jobs is preposterous in my opinion. We’re better off writing letters to businessmen and asking for expansions in America. The president is Santa Claus of the economy.
Can you name ways the president can employ jobs to be created on the spot? Is he really that powerful? I feel like America has fallen flat on its face and believes the government is the only power source to creating new jobs.
