38% Of All Jobs Created In America Were In Texas. Rick Perry ace in the hole?

If Texas Gov. Rick Perry runs for President, he already has a ready-made campaign issue that could drive him straight to the White House.

The Washington Examiner reported:

“Since the recovery began, 38 percent of all the jobs created in American have been created in the State of Texas,” Dallas Federal Reserve president Richard Fisher told CNBC The Squawk Reserve Tuesday.

“My district has more employment now than before the crisis began,” Fisher added.

Imagine a one-theme presidential campaign based on the simple fact that while President Obama was out there destroying American jobs by the millions, Perry was busy creating them in Texas.

Fisher cited the lack of a state income tax, and Texas’ business-friendly regulatory environment for its economic success, which has catapulted the Lone Star State to the top exporter in the U.S., surpassing California. But “the most important thing that’s happened to us is tort reform,” he said.
