and Harvard Law
School simultaneously, he
passed the Michigan
bar exam, but never worked as an attorney.
In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity
investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the United States.
In 1994, he ran for Senator of Massachusetts
and lost to Ted Kennedy.
He was President and CEO of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games, for which he
took not one dollar of salary. Romney
donated to charity the $1.4 million in salary and severance payments
he received for his three years as president and CEO, and also contributed
$1 million to the Olympics. [146][146]
In 2002, he was elected Governor of the State of Massachusetts where he eliminated a 1.5
billion deficit. He took not one
dollar of salary for this position either.
Some Interesting Facts about Romney:
Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store in Massachusetts,
turned it into Staples; now over 2,000 stores
employing 90,000 people.
Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds of
business miracles again and again, with companies like Domino's, Sealy,
Brookstone, Weather Channel, Burger King, Warner Music Group,
Dollarama, Home Depot Supply and many others.
He was an unpaid volunteer campaign worker for his dad's gubernatorial
campaign 1 year.
He was an unpaid intern in his dad's governor's office for eight years.
He was an unpaid bishop and state president of his church for ten years.
He was an unpaid President of the Salt Lake
Olympic Committee for three years.
He took no salary and was the unpaid Governor of Massachusetts for four years.
He gave his entire inheritance from his father to
charity.
Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men in our country but has
given more back to its citizens in terms of money, service and time
than most men.
And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his
income....
Just for comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300
or .0013%.
Mitt Romney is Trustworthy:
He will show us his high school and college transcripts.
He will show us his social security card.
He will show us his law degree.
He will show us his draft notice.
He will show us his medical records.
Mitt Romney's background, experience and trustworthiness show him to be
a great leader and an excellent citizen for President
of the United States.
You may think that Romney may not be the best
representative the Republicans
could have selected. At least I know what religion he
is, and that he won't desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign
powers, or practice fiscal irresponsibility.
I know he has the ability to turn around this
financial debacle that the current regime has gotten us into. We
won't like all the things necessary to recover from this debt, but
someone with Romney's background can do it.
But, on the minus side, he never was a
"Community Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot,
never got drunk, did not associate with communists or terrorists,
nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for
God to damn the US.

This is a powerful video titled "Who am I". It is very thought provoking....

The $831,000,000,000 economic “stimulus” that President Obama
spearheaded and signed into law requires his administration to release
quarterly reports on its effects. But “the most transparent administration in the history of our country”
is now four reports behind schedule and has so far not released any
reports whatsoever in 2012. Its most recent quarterly report is for the
quarter than ended on June 30, 2011. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/ahead-election-obama-stops-releasing-stimulus-reports_654968.html

On his MSNBC program last night, Chris Matthews suggested Mitt Romney
violated the Constitution by not showing deference to President Obama. [Can you hear me laughing? He has not once said that Obama is violating the Constitution, which he does on a regular basis. And as his heroin Hillary Clinton once screeched: "I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree
with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand
up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and
disagree with any administration".
MATTHEWS: "You know, a couple points, I don't think he understands the
Constitution of the United States. He's the president of the United
States, you don't say, 'you'll get your chance.'" [So, I take it that Matthews believes that in the next debate if Obama choses to talk real slow and constantly interrupt, Romney must just let him do all the talking in the debate. This interruption came when Romney had the floor and chose to talk about Obama's China investments in his pension. It was OBAMA who quickly interrupted so that Candy could shut him down and we couldn't learn the truth.] http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/10/18/chris_matthews_romney_challenging_obama_is_against_constitution.html

In his Thursday column in the Washington Post, Krauthammer predicts this line from the president will come back to haunt him:
“And the suggestion that anybody in my team, whether the
secretary of state, our U.N. ambassador, anybody on my team would play
politics or mislead when we’ve lost four of our own, governor, is
offensive.” http://www.theblaze.com/stories/which-obama-debate-gaffe-does-krauthammer-think-might-cost-the-president-dearly/

Four years after The Sentinel, central Florida’s largest newspaper, endorsed Barack Obama’s candidacy for president, the newspaper’s editorial page said Mr. Romney is the better choice this time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hate to say "I told you so!" Chief
Justice John Roberts could begin his next Supreme Court decision
regarding ObamaCare with the following statements: "Whoops, ObamaCare is
unconstitutional. As ObamaCare involves taxes, the House -- not the
Senate -- was constitutionally responsible for originating ObamaCare."

“I’ve never seen a moderator in a major debate interfere with the two
people and take one side and indicate the other one was not telling the
truth,” said Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-OK. “I think it was orchestrated.”
“Did the president willfully lie, and was that a set-up deal with Crowley?” Senator Inhofe asked.
Shortly after the debate, Crowley admitted that Mitt Romney was “right in the main.” http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/senator-asks-if-obama-had-a-39a-set-up-deal-with-crowley39
