AMERICA'S GOVERNMENT IS BROKEN AND MITT ROMNEY IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN FIX IT !  

I went to hear Mitt Romney last night at a town hall meeting here in Laconia, NH. First time I actually met him. He was a distinguished looking man! Tall guy, slim, and a full head of hair. I told him that I once read that a natural born leader usually was “Tall” Slim” and had a full Head of Hair and that’s why I was voting for him. He cracked up! But it’s true, look at all our former successful presidents over 6 feet tall. Like. Washington, Lincoln, Kennedy, Regan, and a bunch more.Then look at the ones who were under 6 foot tall. Madison, Harrison, Adams, Carter. Good presidents but not outstanding. Anyway, Mitt was like meeting the guy next door. He stood there and shook my hand for 5 minutes, listen to my joke and laughed, and than answered my question. The question that I thought he would take a breath, and take a few minutes to answer, but took about 1 second to reply to. The Question…. Mr. Romney, If you would ask the American People to do something for their country above and beyond voting for you as President, what would you ask us to do?

He looked me in the eye and immediately said” I would ask you to back the troops and all those in harms way and who are serving this country. Good answer I thought. Figured I’d get one of those, “Well let’s see” That’s a tough question” Uh, I think I would ask, uh… You know, one of those answers. He also talked about how Washington used to be a government of common folk working for the people, but has become a bunch of politicians just filling positions and making speeches every now and than, and how he was going to change that. It’s true isn’t it? Seems like Washington has just become a place to park their A$$ and collect a big paycheck. Mitt say’s he’s always rolled up his sleeves and got the job done and that’s what he plans to do in Washington. And he mentioned something else that hit home. He mentioned how our children need to be taught again, “that having children before marriage isn’t the proper thing to do”.

That, “young people are suppose to first get married, and then have children. These day’s, under the Democrats and their “give away the store and then tax the people to restock” attitude, a single mother gets around $6000 a year in government benefits. That’s 6k of tax payers money for each and every un-married single parent requiring government help. Much more then married couples would need. Where is this country headed as a healthy community if we continue on that course?  All I have to say is, Everything Mitt say’s sounds right to me and he has a high moral standard too. Some are saying negative things about him being a Mormon but who cares! Mormons don’t bother anyone. And ! We won’t have to worry about him having an affair on his wife, or having sex with young interns in the Whitehouse. That whole Clinton/Lewinsky thing embarrassed the crap out of us, didn’t it?

Seems like the democrats have trouble with keeping their eye’s off the other women, (history shows that) doesn’t it? Heck it’s gotten so bad, that now they even want to vote for a woman? Not that I have anything against woman. I just don’t want one as Mrs. President of the United States. “First Lady” seems more appropriate to me. Far more appropriate than, “First Man”. Don’t you agree?

To John in Pocatello, ID - I probably can't claim the same years of experience in the LDS church as you can but I have been around for 13 years. And in that time I do not recall ANYONE ever defaming another faith from the pulpit. Cetainly not anyone that was an authority of the chuch. I have, however, heard church leaders compare the differences in doctrine between different faiths but It ws always done with extreme caution and tact. Phrases such as, "with all due respect to those of the catholic faith" or similar words. And even that has been a rare occurrence. While no one can insist that the LDS never have been insulting to ther faiths, I think most inside and outside the church would agree we do our best NOT to defame other faiths. Sorry if you have had an exceptional experience.

And as someone here has stated, the LDS faith does not teach that the "great and abominable chuch" is the Catholic church. But there is no question that some may ignorantly believe so.

I am not a citizen but a green card holder. I will soon become one hopefully before the next election. Last week while on vacation with my family at Disney family I met an old couple from Virginia and I asked who will they vote. They answered cetainly not Hillary and Obama. I feel the same too. Does not mean Bush did a bad job on Iraq the next republican will do a bad job. It you want family value, low taxations, low crimes, good education, drugs free society, and benefits for American instead of illegal immgrants I would say vote for Mitt Romney. I am speaking as and alien stand point of view. Wake up Americans !!! Americans need to have a good president to get you out of Iraq and deficits.

This guy is seriously stupid, he said that "its not a religious campaign" and that "it doesn't matter what religion you are" and that is incorrect. He said that the people vote for some one who can make decisions, but does he fail to see that his decisions will be influenced by his religion. That's is something he should talk about, not trying to dismiss his religion, but to inform the American people whether-or-not his decisions will be influenced by his faith. To be honest I'm not sure who I will vote for because......well its kinda obvious, but anyway. C'MON CANDIDATES, STOP ACTING STUPID, ALSO THE DEMOCRATS ARE WHOOPING UP ON REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES OVER ISSUES OF OUR ECONOMY AND WAR, BECAUSE ALL REPUBLICANS TALK ABOUT IS ILLEGALS, which is important, but don't forget about the more important issues with our country's infrastructure.
