Romney has provided what he is obligated to do legally, just like Obama and his college transcripts.

Not good enough.

It's been good enough to derail the thought processes of a few voters from Obama's failed administration.

That, after all, is the main goal. Divide and conquer.

The goal is to beat the rich man whose entire agenda is to favor the rich only. Duh.

...and which rich men would that be, exactly?

Mitt Romney - $80,873,131 - $257,852,991 (based on 2010 filing)

Paul Ryan - $1,605,026 - $7,399,999

Barack Obama - $1,566,014 - $7,764,999

Joe Biden, -$1,260,972 - $190,993

Michelle is on the campaign trail:

Michelle Obama: 'Get to the Polls on November the 2'

7:30 AM, AUG 23, 2012 • BY DANIEL HALPER

Michelle Obama, speaking yesterday at a campaign event in Florida:

"So that one new voter that you register in your precinct -- think about it -- that one neighbor that you get to the polls on November the 2 I want you to understand, that could be the one that makes the difference. That one conversation, that one new volunteer you recruit, that could be the one that puts this over the top."

Here is Daniel Greenfield with some interesting views I tend to agree with.

http://sultanknish.b...n-american.html

After 2010, the numbers were crunched, and it was clear that Obama and the Democrats could not win a mainstream campaign. Instead, they targeted narrow groups, stirred up conflicts over issues aimed at that group, whether it was union pensions, racism or birth control. There was no more pretense of a national election, only a frenzied rush to polarize as many groups as possible and join them together into an acrimonious coalition, not so much for anything, as against Republicans.

Pitting demographic groups against each other is how democracy in America has been for decades now. Nothing new here. Old against the young, rich against the poor, gay against the straight, black against the white. Whatever it takes to fragment the 30% undecided votes to get to a 50.01% victory.

This is the dirtiest, sleaziest presidential campaign in my lifetime and I am not all that young.

The truth is that the only possibility Obama has to win is to distract from his failed record and demonize a succesful, honorable man as something he is not and Obama is determined to win - no matter the cost to the country.

A pretty good response to Obama's joke about his dog a few days ago.

Nonsense. Obama's the real racist. (edited to add)

The Democrats are getting desperate if they think this is an issue. The MSM will step on it for a few days until they wake up from their self induced coma and realize nobody really cares about it, then it will go away.

It is unlikely to sway one single voter away from Romney.

Romney is now polling at ZERO percent with black voters in some recent major polls. This is unprecedented. ZERO percent. Think about it. So clearly they have given up on the black vote. Better for them to attract the racist types attracted to the birther lies.

Or all the citizens who are sick of the failed Obama economy and very unpopular policies the president is forcing on the populace by presidential fiat.

They're not as unpopular as you think.

For example the don't like Obamacare numbers INCLUDE the people (like me) that don't think it is nearly good enough, and that we needed a real universal health care system to even begin to address both the access and cost issues.

It also includes seniors who resent him stealing money from Medicare to pay for something that few Americans even want.

i am now living in South Carolina (not exactly a wasp area of the USA and at me childs rec center the Romney stickers on are many of the African American family car where the Obama sticker is on many of the White American cars; go figure 555

How is that?

We can have universal healthcare tomorrow. All Obama needs to do is talk to his friend, Warren Buffet, and he'll pay for everyone. He has already made it clear he is going to donate his billions when he dies, why not donate to the American people!

Universal health care would be cheaper and more effective that what is in place now.

Warren Buffet? His company owes one billion dollars that he has fought paying the government. What a hypocrite.

The truth finally comes out. This article explains why Obama is so out of touch with reality.

Cannabis smoking 'permanently lowers IQ'

Teenagers who regularly smoke cannabis are putting themselves at risk of permanently damaging their intelligence, according to a landmark study.

By Stephen Adams, Medical Correspondent 8:00PM BST 27 Jul 2012

Researchers found persistent users of the drug, who started smoking it at school, had lower IQ scores as adults.

They were also significantly more likely to have attention and memory problems in later life, than their peers who abstained.

Furthermore, those who started as teenagers and used it heavily, but quit as adults, did not regain their full mental powers, found academics at King’s College London and Duke University in the US.

The real biography of Romney comes out!!!!!

Mitt grew up in a modest family. His father had an auto body shop called the American Motors Corporation, and his mother owned a small piece of land, Brazil. He had several boyhood friends, many of whom owned Nascar franchises, and excelled at school, where his fourth-grade project, “Inspiring Actuaries I Have Known,” was widely admired.

About the author of the linked editorial:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brooks describes himself as being originally a liberal before "coming to my senses." In 1983, he wrote a parody of conservative pundit William F. Buckley Jr., which said "In the afternoons he is in the habit of going into crowded rooms and making everybody else feel inferior. The evenings are reserved for extended bouts of name-dropping."[18]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And on Obama:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brooks has been a frequent admirer of President Barack Obama. In an August 2009 profile of Brooks, The New Republic describes his first encounter with Obama, in the spring of 2005: "Usually when I talk to senators, while they may know a policy area better than me, they generally don’t know political philosophy better than me. I got the sense he knew both better than me. [...] I remember distinctly an image of--we were sitting on his couches, and I was looking at his pant leg and his perfectly creased pant, and I’m thinking, a) he’s going to be president and...B.. he’ll be a very good president.”[29] Two days after Obama’s second autobiography, The Audacity of Hope, hit bookstores, Brooks published a column in The New York Times, titled "Run, Barack, Run", urging the Chicago politician to run for president.[30] However as of December 2011 in a CSPAN interview, Brook's opinion of Obama's presidency was more tempered, giving Obama only a "B-" rating, and said that Obama's chances of reelection would be less than 50-50 if elections were held at that time.[27]

Are democrats running a rude election? You betcha!

Finally! You posted something I can completely agree with. thumbsup.gif

Romney is now polling at ZERO percent with black voters in some recent major polls. This is unprecedented. ZERO percent. Think about it. So clearly they have given up on the black vote. Better for them to attract the racist types attracted to the birther lies.

Blacks are the dumbest voting block out there. Period. They automatically give their vote to one party every election and never get anything in return for it. Just look at Obama's actions this year as proof. He has offered things to just about every special interest out there..Gays (marriage), Women (more free contraception), Hispanics (giving illegals a free pass). What has he offered up to blacks to secure their vote? Nothing. He and the Democrats know they don't have to actually do anything to help blacks. Just have crazy ol' Joe Biden make some racist comments about "puttin' ya'll back in chains!!" to scare the average black voter just in case any were thinking of not turning out to vote at all.

When asked why he hasn't done anything for black businesses, Obama says "I'm not the president of black America". That's true of course, but he has been trying real hard to be the president of Gay America, Female America and Hispanic America.

What are you talking about? Obama has created all those millions of jobs for blacks.

...

Blacks are the dumbest voting block out there.

...

Calling blacks dumb. Charming of you. Yet you wonder why black Americans reject the party of rich white men in America?

First, can you list ANYTHING that Obama and the Democrats have done for black Americans to EARN the over 90% of the black vote they can count on every election? I do not expect you to answer because like the list of Obama's accomplishments since becoming President - no such list exists. But think about it to yourself sometime when you feel like honestly assessing the situation.

Secondly, rich white, black, Asian, Hispanic men & women are the ones who are creating jobs and giving us regular people a way to earn money ourselves and gain self respect instead of looking to government for handouts.So take your commie class warfare thinking and go play somewhere else.

Specifically for black people, no.

Many programs beneficial to the middle and lower classes. Like most black people.

Here's one of a number:

And of course Obamacare if it ever gets fully implemented, including Medicaid expansion.

I am not a communist. I just think the fact the USA is the most economically unequal country in the advanced world is rotten! The republicans aim to make that worse. Black people know that too.

Romney and Ryan will reverse Obama's record of debt, doubt and decline.
