yet as lesley stahl reported in october 2011, when president obama was looking for someone to help get americans back to work, he recruited a most unlikely candidate: the republican ceo of general electric, jeff immelt. >> the mood is dark. people are pissed. why not try to do better? >> jeff immelt talked about his czarship at a gathering of g.e. managers. >> you know, i grew up in cincinnati, ohio, and my parents are really right-wingers. my dad watches, like, five or six hours of fox news every day and stuff like that. so i called home and said, "hey, just to give you a heads-up, you know, i'm gonna be with the president, and he's asked me to lead this jobs council." and my mother said, "well, you said no, of course, didn't you?" [laughing] i said, "no, mom, that's not what i said." [cheers and applause] thank you. >> when you were chosen, there was a lot of criticism. >> yeah. >> i saw a headline that said, "the job czar from hell." >> mm-hmm. >> because of how many jobs g.e. has outside the united states. >> i've taken heat from the right and heat from the left, and it's been unco

"c," plastic. it was so frustrating for josh, his mother, nancy, says he would often give up and retreat into himself. at family gatherings, he was sidelined because no one understood him. at school, he sat passively in class, unable to participate. when josh was feeling bad or really needed something, the family resorted to charades. >> so you'd be, like, you know, "can you spell it? can you show me?" >> oh, how frustrating. >> and so he would-- >> you would act it out almost? >> he would. he would look around a room, and he'd see if he could find something that sounded like it. >> just to tell you one little thing. >> one thing that he wanted, yes. >> how are you? >> but not anymore. >> i want a drink. >> for the past year, josh has been using an apple ipad
