If you could vote, who would you vote for? Romney or Obama and why
I would vote for Romney because if you ask the question, Is me and my family better off than we were 4 years ago, and if you answer no like me, then you have to go Romney. Obama has kept no promises and has been repeating every promise this campaign from his 08 campaign. Obama seems to think that just because we leave Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan that we will just be able to move on and that the terrorists will all of a sudden look the other way. That's not how its going to happen. So we have to stay over there keeping on the offense and putting pressure on them instead of them coming here and us playing defense. Another thing is that Obama seems to think that cutting back military costs will give us more money to spend on roads, uh, no, it just means we can borrow less money.

Obama.
Pres. Obama seems to me to make more sense than Gov.Romney. Romney's plan for the economy make little to no sense, and neither does Rep.Ryan. You extend the Bush Tax cuts, I mean look what happen with Pres. Reagan and Bush (a debt of trillions). I trust Obama with foreign affairs, Gov. Romney seems and talks like he has no idea of what he is talking about, and seems to be an idiot. Romney takes to mush pride in his party and so does congressman Ryan. Their lack of bipartisan character deeply disturbs me.
I have more reasons, but if you want to find out PM me. I really can't expand enough .

I don't have to go for Romney. There's more for us than finances to pick. Sure Obama's lied, but what president in the past years have actually done every single thing they set out to do?
And they only have so much power, they have to go through other people. They're not magical fairies, not all they say can/will be done.
Romney's waaay to flip-floppy for me. I don't feel safe having a leader so unstable and inconsistent in his views. He says he learns from experience, what we need right now is an experienced leader not one that can't seem to stay to his views. He's against quotas as of right now, that means companies will no longer have to hire s certain type of people. Say bye-bye to most of the women, you know how that maternity leave can really put a damper in the work force. He's strongly anti-gay marriage. No problem on having the personal opinion he's got, but if he were to become president, he'd be a man put in position to help the people and secure the protection of our rights. To deny the homosexuals right to marriage and children because "ideal setting in which to raise a child is in a home with both a mother and a father", seems a bit cruel. He also wants to overturn Roe v. Wade. I'm not sitting comfortable knowing this old man would like to control what a woman does with her uterus and body.
Kudos to him trying to improve schools though. We all know how much it's needed, seeing as to how we were/are students. And he knows money, that's another plus.

Romney knows what it means to run a buisness which is what this country needs because it is nothing but a BIG BUISNESS!!! As far as foreign affairs go neither have much experience but considering Obama has completley screwed us and our allies and has conspired with Russia, I have to give Romney a shot at things

In my opinion, Obama hasn't been awful. I feel like he's working his hardest to fix the problems at hand. I'm voting for him.
Also, I know someone will bring up gun rights. Let's get this out of the way; Obama has only signed bills expanding gun laws.

Gov. Romney can run a business. But can a Businessman run a country. I'm not looking for a businessman, I already have one in my house. I'm looking for a leader of a country or our armed forces. Pres.Obama has worked hard with other countries and hasn't "screwed up" anything. And Secretary of State the Hon. Hillary Clinton has been hounding Russia. As if she had a gun to their head.
The Obama administration has worked hard and will continue to work hard, unlike Pres. Bush (jr.).

im not feeling the need to bring up a gun argument today.
I would vote for either of them.
