Thanks.

"While he had some praise for Mr. Obama and Mr. Romney, his central argument was that they were too hemmed in by partisan obligations and special-interest intimidation to tackle problems head on."

More demand more jobs.
People seem to not realize how much money the government is using on corporate welfare to keep jobs in the U.S. and states willing to redistribute wealth to reward corporations to stay put or relocate from one state to another and/or reduce outsourcing of manufacturing jobs.

There are not and never will be enough well paying sustainable jobs to employ everyone.

Exclusive Timeline: Bush Administration Advanced Solyndra Loan Guarantee for Two Years, Media Blow the Story | ThinkProgress
Stink Progress is a Socialist (perhapse even communist) propaganda organization, and not a credible source.

Solyndra applied for loans under the program, but was turned down by the Bush administration, because they viewed it as too risky. Obama was also advised it was too risky, but he went ahead anyway, because they were big doners to his campaign. Pay back time.

I would suggest you find out the facts before you step in it.

I haven't seen it yet, but I understand that Dinesh D'souza has done an excelent job of vetting Obama, which the legacy media has yet to do.

It's a shame that people like you have so little regard for truth, and would rather live in your bubble than discover who was elected in 2008.

Much of what is apparently in the movie has been written by others, and was available in 2008, for those who wanted to know who this man was.

Barack Obama was steeped in communist and socialist thought from the time he was a young boy. He was mentored by Frank Marshall Davis (an avowed communist and communist propagandist), his mother was a communist, as was his step father, Lolo Soetoro.

While at Occidental College in CA, he was a member of a Marxist club, which advocated for a revolution in the United States. His friend at the time, John Drew, and founder of the club (and who has since rejected his Marxist/communist radical past) has written many articles about his relationship with Barack Obama.

Obama is a liar. He claims to have been a professor of Constitutional law at Chicago University School of Law. In fact, he never was a professor, but only a lecturer, and he never taught Constitutional Law. He taught three classes:
From 1992 until 2004, Obama taught three courses: "Current Issues in Racism and the
Law," "Voting Rights and the Democratic Process," and "Equal Protection and Substantive
Due Process."
Obama wasn't a professor; he was a lecturer, a position that the Chicago Law School said
in 2008 "signifies adjunct status."
Chapter II: The myth of the 'rock-star professor' | WashingtonExaminer.com
So, it seems you'd rather keep your head in the sand and support the fraud that is sitting in the Oval Office, pretending to be President, while doing great harm to our nation, and putting us at great risk. His policies have already established the Muslim Brotherhood as the new power in the Middle East, and once again al-Qaeda, under Obama's "leadership" has established a new "beachead," in Benghazi. Obama has blood on his hands. Richard Nixon resigned for far less, and Bill Clinton was impeached for less.

So we know that he has nothing more to do with Bain capital.

But don't you think that it is immoral for his to be getting profits from a company that outsources jobs to China and closes down factories that are doing good in America? Well, no, silly me, Christians like Romney always do the right things.

As for Romney, you don't know a thing, but you simply have faith in him? What is he, Jesus Christ?
No, we all know that Obama is the messiah. All he's running on is "Forward" (to what?) and "tax the rich." Not really what I would call solid plans.

Obama supporters are either liars or idiots! Romney has not had any control over Bain since 1998. The articles are about 2006. That is like blaming Obama for what a company in one of his mutual funds does.

As far as his plan for more jobs: Let me say it very slowly for you democrats. Grow the economy by increasing the middle class take home pay and letting small business keep more of what they earn. The middle class are the consumers that drive the economy. Small business hires the most workers. Get it?

So have you divested yourself of every company in your 401K or any mutual fund that does business in China? Apple outsources jobs to China. No, I didn't think so.

Mitt Romney has a Great Plan to help with job growth..that he wont tell you about..

So if the plan turns out to be Hope and Change... well, at least it's as much as Obama offered.
