Romney Can Americans Especially Hispanic Americans Trust You?

My question for Romney: How can Americans especially those Hispanic Americans who pay little or no taxes therefore are part of the 47 percent that you stated are government-dependent "victims" who believe they are "entitled" trust your October 2, 2012 position on the special visa issued by President Obama? On October 2, 2012, Romney stated to a writer at the Denver Post : "The people who have received the special visa that the president has put in place, which is a two-year visa, should expect that the visa would continue to be valid. I am not going to take something that they purchased.” Before Romney latest flip flop he was against the Dream Act, Texas In a September 30, 2011, post on”the Hill” website featured a Mitt Romney’s primary web ad video, titled "Thank you Governor Perry.” The ad attacked Perry for stating during a debate that he supported in state tuition rates for immigrants’ children. ** Today October 2, 2012, the ad is no longer available online and is labeled private.

Is Romney, Rove, and Republican Governors Planning to Steal the 2012 Presidential Election?

Has Mitt Romney’s blind ambition to become president caused him to lose all sense or reality (joining Rove and Dick Morris that ALL the presidential polls are wrong); or is he showing the world that he is not fit to become president because he changes positions and facts at will; AND/OR has Rove and Republican governors of swing states PROMISED Romney like Jed Bush PROMISED George Bush Florida in 2000, that he is winning their states electoral college votes? WE THE PEOPLE can’t remain silent in 2012. We must demand a fair presidential election on November 6, 2012. Vera Richardson Author of Screwed by Former Governor and Attorney General Eliot Spitzer

President Obama’s 2012 Re-Election Will be More Historic than his 2008 Election

 

When Barack Obama ran for President in 2008, it was an historic election. The prospect of voting for America's first African-American president brought black folks to the polls who had never voted before. People voted early, stood in long lines, some were in wheelchairs or on walkers -- but the passion and enthusiasm were palpable in black communities across America.

The rights and opportunities that our ancestors marched for finally came to fruition on election night, November 4, 2008, when the votes were cast and the T.V. networks announced that Barack Obama had been elected the 44th President of the United States. Tears of joy were shed across America by young and old.

Some of us mistakenly thought that, with President Obama's election, we had finally arrived. We could take it easy and not have to press so hard for our rights to be affirmed.

We underestimated the backlash from the opposition. Those who did not vote for Obama and who thought a black man would never occupy the White House -- either through prejudice, ignorance or defiance of authority -- quickly rose up in anger and indignation. The Tea Party was formed and we've seen their influence on politics in general and the Republican Party, in particular.

In his September 24, 2011, speech to the Congressional Black Caucus, President Obama was speaking for me and to me when he said, “Throughout our history, change has often come slowly. Progress often takes time. I never promised easy. Easy has never been promised to us. But we’ve had faith. We have had faith. We’ve had that good kind of crazy that says you can’t stop matching.”

“Even when folks were hitting you over the head you can’t stop matching. Even when they’re turning the hoses on you, you can’t stop. Even when somebody fires you for speaking out, you can’t stop. Even when it looks like there’s no way, you find a way—you can’t stop. Through the mud and muck and the driving rain, we don’t stop. Because we know the rightness of our cause-widening the circle of opportunities, increasing each other’s prosperity. We know our cause is just. It’s a righteous cause.”

It will be difficult to duplicate the magic of the 2008 campaign, but we can't afford to sit down -- you have to put on your marching shoes once again and work to re-elect President Obama in 2012! You need to not only vote, but work in the trenches to put President Obama back in the White House for four more years.

Don't be fooled. With Republican legislatures around the country attempting to make voting more difficult in poor and minority communities, the election in 2012 matters more than ever!

Here's why President Obama's re-election is important:

1. He cares about ordinary people -- the poor, middle class and those hardest hit by the recession.

2. He can keep the right-wing forces from enacting discriminatory policies and enacting more voter suppression legistation across America.

3. He can appoint more federal and Supreme Court justices who are sensitive to the needs of blacks and other minorities.

4. The presence of the Obama First Family in the White House is an important positive symbol for our young people and others around the world.

5. America needs President Obama's continued outstanding foreign policy experience during an unstable international environment.

President Obama has instituted "Operation Vote" to make it easier for African-American communities to organize for 2012. What are you willing to do?

Here are some things you can do to help with President Obama's re-election:

1. Make sure you have the proper documents to vote by securing a state-issued driver's license or photo I.D., if you don't already have one.

2. Sign up as a voting registrar and register people to vote in your neighborhood.

3. Host a fundraiser for President Obama in your home or through one of your community organizations; and/or send a personal contribution to his re-election campaign online.

4. Post information via social media like Facebook and Twitter encouraging your friends to vote for President Obama's re-election.

5. Encourage your church or pastor to host voter registration drives.

6. Stay informed about the presidential election campaign by watching news broadcasts each day.

7. Voice you support for President Obama’s agenda and vision for this country on popular blog sites, radio and television websites, YouTube, and CNN.com I-Reports.

8. Write letters to the editor or commentaries in support of President Obama and submit them to your local daily newspaper.

It will take a concerted effort from all of us to get President Obama re-elected. Put on your marching shoes and let's get to work!

Romney & Sons Loves Mormonism and Money but None Loved America Enough to Serve in the Military

Romney wants to have the authority, as Commander in Chief, to send our children and grandchildren to war although neither he nor his FIVE sons, all able bodied men, have ever served this nation by enlisting in its military. Romney and his FIVE sons have only paid lip service with their declarations of LOVE for America.  The Romney’s have demonstrated with their money donations and missions to their Mormon faith their LOVE of Mormonism.

Romney has also shown his LOVE of MONEY by making by most sources 250 million dollars as co-founder and according to documents filed with SEC SOLE owner of BAIN CAPITAL.  Mitt Romney and his wife have money in Swiss bank accounts and investments in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda.  Therefore, we don’t have a reliable method to determine how much money is in the Romney’s off shore accounts.

An example to support my belief, that even if you are super rich and important, you can still serve and protect your country is Prince William and his brother Prince Harry. Unlike Mitt Romney and his FIVE sons, both of these young men served in their nations military.  In fact Prince William is currently serving asa search and rescue pilot in the Air Force.

I am an African-American female and my ONLY son served this nation as a military police officer in the Marine Corp for four years.

Why didn’t any of the Romney men find time in their lives or heart to serve this great nation? What does Mitt and his son value more the Mormon faith, money, or America's national security?  The fact that none have served in our military tells me and should tell you that the answer isn’t America’s national security.

Romney’s Birther Comment Racist and Tax Return Diversion?

Mitt Romney has already embraced and accepted help from Donald Trump, the number one birther, Therefore, I believe that Romney’s August 24, 2012, birth certificates remark was an attempt to divert attention from and/or to change the national dialogue from Romney’s tax returns and Bain Capital. After the strategy backfired because a large number of Americans were rightful outraged, Romney claimed that he was only "JOKING."

 

I truly believe that information contained in Romney’s tax returns will “DOOM” his efforts and the efforts of Karl Rove’s Super Pac American Crossroads, and Rove's Crossroads GPS to win and/or buy the presidency of the United States of America. The fact that Rove, who GAVE America and the world George W Bush,  is involved in this election and Mitt Romney won’t release his tax returns should scare the ‘HELL’  out of the voters. African-Americans, the poor, unemployed, and anyone who suffered during the greatest financial crisis of since the great depression should run to the polls and vote for President Obama.

Mitt can’t escape this issue at the very least he needs to release his 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2011 tax returns so that voters can make an inform decision when they cast their vote on November 6, 2012.

Romney is WRONG: 2012 Poor Black People Working for Slave Wages in Houston

According to a pool report from Romney’s Hamilton, Montana fundraiser  held on July 11, 2012, Romney told donors: “if they (Obamacare supporters) want more stuff from government tell them to go vote for the other guy – more free stuff.”  Since making that statement Romney’s campaign strategy includes FALSE ATTACK campaign ads approved by Romney that accuses President Obama of removing WORK from welfare reform laws. In a post titled ” Romney's Race-Baiting Welfare Ads” on Huffington Post writer Mark Hannah stated that he believes the strategy appears to be racially motivated. I agree with Hannah.

Romney is wrong for using the false race baiting welfare ads and in his implication that “Obamacare” supporters want more free stuff from the government. As evident from this blog and video made with pictures taken in August 2012, poor people living in Houston, Texas are reporting for work at a day labor office between 5:30 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. They work until 12:00 p.m. or until the assignment is completed for an average net pay of 17 or 18 dollars.

The poor not only want to work but ARE working in Houston, Texas for wages that COULD be classified as violating the requirements of minimum wages laws and/or “SLAVE LABOR.” Romney isn’t the SOLUTION for the American economy. I believe that Romney and anyone who would take advantage of poor people, like the ones featured in this video, are part of the PROBLEM.

Vice President Biden APOLOGIZE!

Vice President Joe Biden should apologize immediately for his "back in chains" remark, made during a campaign event in Danville, Virginia on August 14, 2012.  Based on this nation’s racial past, especially in Virginia, there is no defense of Biden’s comment other than a sincere apology. His apology should include a statement that he misspoke and that his comment doesn’t reflect the view(s) and/or beliefs of President Obama.

This story should have ended yesterday August 14, 2012. We know that there is a double standard on race issues in this country. President Obama’s brilliant campaign team has launched a winning offensive campaign. This election is too important for this nation and the world to let a slip of the tongue or a mistake derailed President Obama’s chances for reelection. DOES the Democratic Party want to win the election on November 6, 2012, or win this unnecessary BIDEN'S latest news making GAFFE.

APOLOGIZE NOW and continue to march this election and this nation FORWARD!
