If you look at the unemployment numbers ... the fragility of the financial system and the fact that its an international system, the recession is a big problem, and its going to get worse, Obama told NBC News Tom Brokaw on Saturday. The interview aired Sunday on NBCs Meet the Press. Acknowledging that his agenda had changed sharply just in the month since he was elected, Obama said passing a short-term economic stimulus package was now his top priority.
