It didn't, rendering another lame "what if" pointless.

Could you imagine if 911 would have happened during Obama's administration instead of Bush's? ................. Astronomical!

See, pointless.

Your simple question was what is Romney's plan...right?

Well, it's been online at his website for MONTHS. Go READ it!!!!

Obama only just released his plan...a tint pamphlet two weeks before the election. And it's nothing more than the same stuff that he's been failing at doing for 4 years.

Years actually. His 5-point plan is same as McCain's. Whose 5-point plan was pretty much a repeat of Bush's in 2004.

Look around. Almost every business in construction, landscape and restaurants--drywalling, masons, painters, framers etc are hiring large amounts of immigrants because they can get away with paying them under the table, no workers comp, less wages, no health care,etc etc. These are jobs Americans WILL DO.

Why isn''t the media picking this up?
Two-thirds of jobs go to immigrants during Obama's four years - Washington Times

I find it curious how this President isn't held liable for his policies the way Bush was.

He takes credit for "creating 5m private jobs" even though 80% of these are lower income jobs. Employers make their final decisions based on the economy and tax implications. They refuse to hire full time high income employees under the current administration simply because they'd lose their ASSEtS.

$2T is still being held offshore by corporations. This money will never be repatriated under Obama.

You just proved that you didn't bother to got there.

Romney has a 29 point list.


PS: Where's Obama's plan?

I am looking around and seeing what I have seen throughout my professional career (since the mid 90s): qualified Americans and immigrants being hired. We've quadrupled in size over since 2010. Heck, Rick Perry paid a visit to thank this fast growing company for creating jobs in Texas. And we thank Obama.

Fools may cry and whine, for being unable to compete.

And if the unemployment rate had ticked down by 0.1%, the asshat Republicans would be screaming about a conspiracy.

Obama's plan has been in place for over three years now. I have seen results from it. More could have been done, but I will take the positive steps this nation has seen under him. Please keep your Zomney ideas to self. But since you asked... Romney's 5-point plan for the Zomneys (to be imposed on everybody else too)
