Romney told supporters that he and Ann had been born at nearby hospitals.
No one’s ever asked to see my birth certificate. They know that this is the place that we were born and raised.”
No, no, not a swipe,. I’ve said throughout the campaign and before, there’s no question about where he was born. He was born in the U.S. This was fun about us, and coming home. And humor, you know — we’ve got to have a little humor in a campaign.”
Obama campaign spokesperson Ben LaBolt quickly denounced the remark,
embraced the most strident voices in his party instead of standing up to them.”
Is Obama for America getting testy before the GOP convention in Tampa, Florida?
Obama for America calling for Mitt Romney to a traditional act of transparency. Really, where is the birth certificate and the college and Harvard records that Obama has sealed? What is up with that Mr. President? I do not want to see Romney’s tax returns. I want to view Obama’s REAL Birth Certificate and college transcripts. What do you mean the GOP did not properly vet this man. How did Obama get vetted? I have been asking that question for four years.
Obama for America distorted view of the GOP 2012 election, funny video!
Friend —
Friday morning, I sent a letter to Mitt Romney’s campaign manager, asking that Romney release just five years of tax returns. And I made a commitment that, if he does, this campaign would not demand more.
Right now, our opponent is proposing a $2,000 tax increase on middle-class families with kids in order to pay for tax breaks for millionaires like him.
He’s asking Americans to put him in charge of their taxes, while refusing to come clean about his own.
This isn’t going away because voters deserve better, and everyone but the Romney campaign seems to recognize that.
Romney’s refusal to release his returns is raising more questions than he’s been willing to answer.
According to the one full year of returns he has released, Romney paid 13.9% in taxes on his income. Thursday, he said he went back and looked, and has never paid less than 13% over the last ten years.
Now we’re asking him to put his money where his mouth is.
It is absolutely relevant for us to ask how much a presidential candidate paid in taxes, if he sheltered his money or tried to get out of paying taxes at all, why he started — and continues to own — a corporation offshore in Bermuda, why he keeps his finances offshore in the Cayman Islands, and why he opened a Swiss bank account.
In refusing to be transparent about it, he’s not only breaking the trust he’s asking voters to place in him, but also three decades of precedent that began with his own father’s presidential campaign in 1968.
This issue isn’t going away, and for good reason. Tell Romney to follow 30 years of precedent and release his tax returns:
Joe Biden states, “Romney is going to put y’all back in chains,” at a Danville, Virginia rally. Now let us go back to 2008, Sen. Biden brags: “My state was a slave state.” Biden is referencing the State of Delaware. I say we do not give this man a pass any longer. No more crazy uncle in the attic analogy.
Americans will decide November 6, 2012. Stop the race baiting nonsense, right in its tracks.
Biden remarked,
They’ve said it. Every Republican’s voted for it. Look at what they value and look at their budget and what they’re proposing. Romney wants to let the—he said in the first 100 days, he’s going to let the big banks once again write their own rules–unchain Wall Street. They’re going to put y’all back in chains. He’s said he’s going to do nothing about stopping the practice of outsourcing…
Big Solutions. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan: America’s Comeback Team. Big solutions for America’s biggest challenges.
The GOP put out its first video Monday featuring Paul Ryan with Mitt Romney from the speech in front of the USS Wisconsin where Ryan was officially named Romney’s running mate. The two are being named ‘The Comeback Team” for their message of positive hope in bringing America back to fiscal solvency and being honest with people in offering responsible ideas.
60 Minutes interview with Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, Chairman of the Budget Committee taped in High Point, N.C, August 12, 2012. CBS News’ chief Washington correspondent Bob Schieffer was the moderator for their first interview as running mates. Paul Ryan is already on the ballot for his Congressional seat repeat 7 term.
Take the time to view this video. I have paused and rewound some segments. I think we have a great team here to reform America failed policies.
Obama has a terrible record, did not moderate his positions thought out his 4 year term. Obama is trying to run on distractions and divide people, agreed Mr. Ryan. Mitt Romney has found his voice, very clearly. Ryan’s one role will be to shepherd legislation on Capital Hill. This young man isn’t going to sit and watch people yield off tract, not under his watch.
When and if elected what would a Romney cabinet look like now that we have seen his choice for Vice President?
November 6, 2012 will be the fate of America. We cannot keep the reckless abandonment occurring.We have a front row seat into our own history.
I wish there was a debate this week and every week until the election. Expose the fraud and waste this current administration is engaged.
