All my numbers are from the above. Contesting the 5% unemployment rate is wishful. 94 million does seem like a lot. The factors used to distinguish the numbers has been the same since 1948. No Obama conspiracy to cook the books.

There are 94 million working age Americans (16 and over not working and not "institutionalized) before subtracting anyone. 

Of these 94 million:

37.572 million men > age 16

56. 472 million women > age 16

Of the 2 above demos. included are stay at home mothers/fathers; all retirees not in the job market & students, over age 16,  in high school or college, not seeking work and of course, the proverbial # of chronically unemployed collecting welfare and those living on the streets & a few other demographics.

It's self-serving argument to quibble about a 3 pt difference since 2009 , when so many demographic factors are at play, considering the historical data going back to 1948 & the low LFPR then.
