2012-10-29 18:31:54 UTC
Obama doubled America's debt, there's no jobs, and the budget is NOT balanced. Why does everyone want to re elect him?? He didn't keep his promises, he just made everything worse. Everyone says they don't like Romney because he's rich and just wants to help rich people. He's rich because he was successful, and why doesn't anyone understand that? He's that wealthy for a reason. Because he's a successful business man. He understands small businesses.

Can someone please enlighten me why the majority of America wants to re-elect Obama?

It's not the majority that want to re elect Obama right now, but there are millions of people that are with the following minds: either not very bright or gullible believing all Obama's many lies, refuse to objectively look at Obama's 4 year record and the state of our economy, do not have empathy and perception, want democrat party to win no matter what, and some are racist. Also, some are not interested in politics doing their own thing but they vote, often for who they think is winnning polls.



Financial experts are now saying that the 2% growth is "tricky" stuff and is actually due to government spending! Experts saying next year will be 12% unemployment average, will be harder to get a job, and that costs will skyrocket (even more than now). L.A. Times says middle class is shrinking, 58% of wages from 2009 to 2012 were minimum to $13 per hr. All the while Obama would keep spending like his giving billions to Brazil so they can produce their own oil w/ jobs while we in America continue to suffer with high costs and no jobs.



A lot of Obama supporters don't know that capitalism free enterprise is what built up our country to be great and "thrive", socialism has never worked for very long, it always ends up a failure for simple as can be economics 101. Romney is exactly who we need, he's a zillion times better than Obama.

On the Day that America will hear that President Obama is re-elected is when you will be enlightened. You will light up like a Christmas tree . Yes, Romney was successfull and is Rich and it is because he made all his money with Bane. You can't be that one sided and not realize how Romney got rich. Romney also became Rich while all his dealings in China. But yet he comes to America and sells his products for high cost , while paying labor in China very little. I want Obama for a President because he is fair, honest and for all the People. Not for just the Rich. He Loves America and after seeing all the nasty ad's about our President and your People calling him a Communist, Muslim, Saying he was born in Kenya, making fun of his wife, that he bows to the Middle East King, is a drug user, a gang member out of Chicago and the list goes on and on. Why on Earth would you want a big wind bag, that speaks lots of words but don't say a darned thing ??

1. He did not double the federal debt. It was almost $11 trillion when Obama took over from Bush. The debt is a result of unfunded Medicare Part D, two wars, TARP, and under Obama a second TARP, GM loans, and the stimulus spending due to the recession.



2. The budget cant be balanced during a recession when Congress wont work with you. I think balancing a budget is the last order of business in our economic recovery.



3. I dont know what promises you refer to. I know that his plans are effective. He helped Wall St and saved the entire banking system and then helped Main St.



4. Romney is a private equity fund investor. He never owned a small business which hired workers and produced any goods. Romney talks about small government and lower taxes but his companies take federal money. He is a crook and a phony.

I just want to say to all of you saying Romney is better, you all basically proved you're kind of idiots, half of you want to look smart but you can't even freaking spell. And to the person that said Obama never says god bless America, why does he have to shove his religion down our throats like Romney. I swear if Romney wins this election I am moving to Canada. He is worse than Bush and Rick Perry put together! Screw him. Oh and Obama lies! Let's say that's true, at least he tells us his freaking plan. Romney just says everything Obama says is wrong then changes it 2 hours later. Man we are freaking screwed.

I completely agree with you. In my mind it's pretty obvious that Romney is the better choice. I'm guessing most are naive on the subject and go by the status of the two; Romney, a wealthy business man, and Obama, a man all for the middle class. I'm not saying that everyone who likes obama is ignorant on the subject, however politics is a rough area where many have strong opinions that usually aren't able to be backed up. I agree with you though. I am in no way in love with Romney, however after the status of our economy, i don't see the point in re-electing the person who put us there.

by using fact, in the time of the final 70 years, Democratic (and Obama) regulations have produced the utmost annual quotes of the two economic develop and private wealth develop. while you're balloting merely on the inspiration of having better the economic equipment, any Democrat is greater suitable than any Republican. even with the incontrovertible fact that, in case you want to regulate women's well being care, decrease wages, and blame our problems on brown human beings, you will possibly vote for Romney.
2012-10-29 18:43:06 UTC
Obama of course.



Only an idiot like would point out all the small details & vote for Romney. Romney shipped jobs overseas to places like China when he was governor in Mass. He had one of the worst job records in history when he was governor! And he has the guts to call China cheaters when he shipped lot's of jobs there. Romney wants to cut taxes for millionairess like himself and raise taxes for middle-class. Obama believes that if he makes millionairess pay more taxes then he can lower middle-class taxes. Obama wants to end the war in the middle-east to cut the debt and Romney wants to continue it. Obama wants to lower tuition and of course Romney wants to make it higher. Romney doesn't know what he is doing. He is a flip-flopper. Look it up...

The choice is clear! Obama2012

So many people in this Country are deceived, You don't have to be all that smart to see where Obama is taking this country, Its hard to believe that people can't see all the lies and cover up from Obama and his administration, I have been in the union for many years, I think they are good to have, We need them But it doesn't make any sense to Vote for someone that is bankrupting this country, You can give the Unions all the power you want but Unions Don't Create Jobs, They get you the best possible wages they can, But just remember, Unions are Worthless if there's No Jobs, I think the Unions need to get their Heads out of their a**, and stop telling their people to Vote for a guy that thinks a 16 trillion dollar debt is nothing to worry about, I do believe if Obama gets re elected we will see Record number Jobs going overseas, Just think about it, Put your self in the shoes of a business owner, Just talk to some business owners your self, Obama may be a Nice Guy, But not all Nice guys can run a Country or a business.



Socialism doesn't work and it will never work in our Country, If you want it, Move to greece.

Wow. Research how Romney made all of that wealth, and without a predetermined bias, you will find that he isn't a hard worker, he's a manipulator.



Obama's tax plan would have us draw enough revenue to pay off the debt we have. Unfortunately, the "party first" Republicans will block, veto, and filibuster anything Obama would dare try and pass. Make note that as soon as Obama was inaugurated, that Mitch McConnell clearly stated that the Republican priority was not jobs or decreasing the deficit, it was to make Obama a one-term president. Don't let them bring back their suicidal economic plans.

Mainly, because Mittens is a worse choice. He wants more unfunded tax cuts that the middle class will end up paying for. Make it even easier for corporations to export jobs. Strip health insurance from 50 million Americans. Honestly, I am more worried that Mittens might keep these promises.

Because they are socialist buffoons. Those people that want to re-elect him are so brainwashed that they would vote for him even if he stated intentions to nuke our own cities. They cite that Romney is a flip-flop, but they fail to mention that Obama is just a flop. Without the power to think on their own, they regurgitate the senseless drivel they are fed, and will vote however they are told.

People who are wanting to follow Obama are disillusioned. He got them so heavily into the voting in of the first black President, of the "Hopey Changey" chants, and of thinking he's kinda cute.... they aren't ready to give up that belief. They so related to him in the first election, they just don't want to let go no matter what anyone says.

Obama stood by and Watched our Marines get killed in Libya!

Obama NEVER wears a flag pin (Only during the debates)

Obama NEVER says "GOD bless America"

Obama & the Democraps tried to get "GOD" removed from the DNC rules



Obama is hiding his school records, KNOWING it proves he took student loans

as a FOREIGN STUDENT!! - and proves he is NOT AN AMERICAN Citizen!!!!



FRAUD! - Traitor! - NObama in 2012!

Because Romeny has no idea what he'a talking about? Obama has been in office for 4 years which Romney criticizes him for not having done anything yet promises his beloved "5-point plan" will work in 8-10 years
2012-10-29 18:59:54 UTC
I won't waste my time trying to "enlighten" you.

You've obviously made your choice. I hope the rest of us won't have to live with it.

PEOPLE voting for Obama are going after personal interests only, and they are not aware of the consecuences of their actions.
