CBS News - By : Staff Reporting
President Obama, in an interview with CBS News' Charlie Rose, says his biggest mistake as President was not conveying a sense of inspiration to the American people during his first term. President Obama indicated that he would do a better job of telling a story of hope and optimism in a possible second term as President of the United States.
"When I think about what we've done well and what we haven't done well," the president said, "the mistake of my first term - couple of years - was thinking that this job was just about getting the policy right. And that's important. But the nature of this office is also to tell a story to the American people that gives them a sense of unity and purpose and optimism, especially during tough times."
