    Here's a graph of black unemployment in the 21st century. Lowest point: 6.8% in Dec 2017 (AKA now), beating the previous low of 7.0% from April 2000. That's great news. But see how it's gone down steadily since mid-2011? Clearly the decline wasn't caused by 2017 policy changes.pic.twitter.com/GpNguqv0Jg

        True, but that won't matter. Presidents own the economy they are in. Dems can win in many ways in November. But they should not bring up the economy. Complaining about a tax cut or bonuses is a bad strategy.

        My point's about accurate analysis, rather than electoral politics. Whatever the political implications, the evidence indicates the cause isn't a government policy change in 2017 (or 2016, '15, or '14 either). Most likely, a combo of normal post-recession recovery and Fed policy.

        It seems the entire Globe is benefitting. How long it lasts remains to be seen. Trump will take the credit regardless. Have a good day, Nicholas. I enjoy your expertise.

        And it's about time. The global economy has faced some serious headwinds over the last 12 years. Hopefully it lasts. Thanks. Hope you have a nice day too.

        I think #KremlinDon has left himself vulnerable—as usual—by taking credit for relatively low black unemployment; if Jay-Z puts together a twitter/Facebook reply that hammers home the 'thanks Obama' angle, that might be what gets reported ad infinitum by @CNN & @MSNBC.
