17. Colorado Durango Herald endorses Obama: When couched in straightforward terms, the answer is clear: President Obama should be re-elected. He has done a reasonably good job handling an almost unprecedented economic mess – a situation that has proved far worse than anyone knew as it developed… Republican Party has offered no credible alternative. Its platform consists of little more than nostalgia for the 1950s, and its presidential candidate largely remains a mystery. 10/20/12 –

The Self-Made Man

Source: Uploaded by user via Natalie on Pinterest

Going from helping the poor to President of the United States, before he was 50, seems far more successful, to me, than anything that Romney has done.

I think it is Obama who has done everything on his own, which is the definition of the self-made man. Pres. Obama got student loans to get through college, which he paid back, because he is responsible and not a government freeloader as Romney seems to think of all people who get government help. I think this only shows how important student loans and Pell Grants are to the future of the country. They can help a potentially great man to realize his greatness. Romney wants to assuage Pell grants and student loans.  Since he never had to receive a student loan, he doesn’t understand how important they are to some people.  It’s doubtful that he even cares.

Grandfather Romney’s Wives

Grandpa Romney and his many wives (not true)

10/18/12–Update:  I just learned that the above photo, which is floating around the Internet as Romney’s grandfather, is bogus.  Read “comments.”  The photo below however is accurate.  Romney’s grandfather had 5 wives.  The people in the photo above are circus people.

It is said that we cannot discuss this as it would be intolerant to discuss Mitt Romney’s religion or family history. People can call Obama a Muslim, say he was born in Kenya, but people cannot discuss anything about Mitt that just happens to be true – like which one of these ladies is Mitt’s Grandmother?  That why Romney’s father was living in Mexico, because Romney’s grandfather wanted to practice polygamy and it was too difficult here.
