(Washington, DC) — A new biography on Steve Jobs claims the late Apple CEO had some tough words for President Obama when the two met last year. Walter Isaacson’s book says Jobs told Obama, quote, “You’re headed for a one-term presidency.” Jobs died earlier this month after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. He reportedly told Obama regulations and unnecessary costs put the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage with China, where the cost of doing business is lower. Jobs also told Obama the teachers’ union is crippling the education system and that principals should be allowed to hire and fire teachers based on merit.
