Gallup data gives probably the best unemployment figures base on proper data used. Therefore, unemployment should be close to 9.9% and the underemployment figures should be close to 19.2%. In order to protect Obama from further embarrassment, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics gave us a ridiculous number to quell the inadequacies of the president's policies.

(Gallup) Gallup's U.S. employment measures report the percentage of U.S. adults in the workforce, ages 18 and older, who are underemployed and unemployed, without seasonal adjustment. "Underemployed" respondents are employed part time, but want to work full time, or they are unemployed. "Unemployed" respondents are those within the underemployed group who are not employed, even for one hour a week, but are available and looking for work. Results for each 30-day rolling average are based on telephone interviews with approximately 30,000 adults. Because results are not seasonally adjusted, they are not directly comparable to numbers reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which are based on workers 16 and older. Margin of error is ± 0.7 percentage points.
