I remember Obummer doing the same thing back in the day. Unemployment numbers started soaring so they decided to fudge how the numbers were tracked. Think it was something like if you hadn't been looking for a job after 3 months, you wouldn't count anymore towards the unemployment rate, even if you didn't have a job. Think it dropped somewhere from the high 20s or 30s percentile down to single digits once they implemented that.

Clinton’s also had the number fudging. But who knows how far back it goes.
