The Presidency and "Jobs Creation"

It is my personal opinion that Presidents have very little to do with jobs creation in the private sector. They are given way too much credit or blame depending upon the economic situation. I am well aware of how government can add jobs by adding to the bureaucracy. However, more government jobs have never historically added to the wealth of a particular country-- unless those jobs are that of conquering soldiers.

Most increased regulation causes jobs to be rearranged, not increased. Where does a president have the ability to truly add jobs? I am looking for evidence to change my mind....

Thanks
