3. He pushed for and won middle-class tax cuts that benefitted every American worker, and saved the typical family $3,600 in taxes over the last four years.

4. President Obama rescued the auto industry, and now GM and Chrysler are healthier than they've ever been. The American auto industry has added nearly a quarter of a million jobs since June 2009 -- and they most likely wouldn't exist right now without President Obama's leadership.

5. He doubled funding for Pell Grants, helping to make college more affordable for nearly 10 million families.

6. His student loan reform ended billions in subsidies to banks serving as middlemen and reinvested those savings directly into students.

17. The parents of over 17 million children with pre-existing conditions no longer have to worry that their children will be denied coverage.

18. President Obama has ordered the overhaul of federal government regulations to make them smarter, practical, & more efficient. Just a fraction of these commonsense initiatives will help save businesses $10 billion in the next five years alone.

(Part III)
21. Obama has taken action to address climate change, reaching historic international agreements to curb carbon emissions, & taking action here at home to reduce carbon pollution from our vehicles & promote clean energy production.

23. Obama fought for & won landmark Wall Street reform that reins in the abuses that led to the financial crisis & ends the era of taxpayer bailouts & "too big to fail."

24. Wall Street reform created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the nation's first federal agency focused solely on consumer financial protection -- and the Bureau is already protecting families from unfair & abusive financial practices from Wall Street.

25. As part of the President's commitment to transparency, the White House has posted its visitor records online for the first time ever.

30. He rallied the international community to implement the toughest sanctions on Iran in history.

31. Through the President's historic increases in Veterans Affairs funding, he has expanded & improved healthcare & job training access for our returning veterans.

32. President Obama negotiated the New START Treaty with Russia to reduce the number of nuclear weapons in both countries. At the same time, he also secured commitments from dozens of other countries to lock down nuclear materials.

33. His administration naturalized 11,146 military service members as U.S. citizens in 2010; more than in any year since 1955.

34. The President set a bold new plan for the future of NASA space exploration, using the skill & ability of the private sector for short trips to the International Space Station, while building a new vehicle for exploration of distant space, & doing everything in his power to support the economy on Florida's Space Coast.

39. Oh, and he gave the order to send troops in after Osama Bin Laden -- and has decimated al-Qaeda's senior leadership.

My insurance premiums increased that much before Obamacare every year. Why is the CEO of Cleveland Clinic endorsing Obamacare? Romney introduced this concept in Massachusetts and as usual he reversed himself to pander to the uninformed fears of Obamacare. If you lose your job, you will be able to select health insurance from an assortment of private plans. Your premiums will be based on your income, so if you are under employed or unemployed you will be covered. If you don't have insurance through a job, you will be able to buy affordable health insurance. There is no such thing as "affordable" health insurance now for people who don't have insurance through employers. That's why it's called the "Affordable Care Act". This moves millions of people off of Medicaid and those funds are better spent supplementing insurance premiums and insurance companies manage expenses. This is a better use of your tax dollars.

^Vote for Obama to make delusional Tea-Baggers like this go away.

The interesting thing about your list of reasons to vote for Gov. Romney regarding his time as Gov., the people of MA are not voting for him for President. These are the men and women who elected him Gov.. Why should we?

If you consider 800 vetos when govenor with 700 overturned, working across the aisle, then you are voting for the right guy. You two deserve each other. A small part of me wishes that Romney would win so folks like you might finally realize what an empty-suit he really is. But then I think no one desrves that!

What a laugh about Massachusetts. Mitt Romney can't even get win his own state he governed for 4 years. He was elected by the people there (Democrats!), had his chance, they saw what this guy really is, and he's losing in Massachusetts, his own state, by a landslide. What more proof do voters need?

Maybe Romney was trying to show teachers what there class sizes are going to look like if he is president. 30,000 to 1 ratio is really going to help education....I think not!

Follow Erin's Story and see how Obamacare saved her life like so many others with preexisting conditions. Then I challenge any Tea Party self serving scumbag to look her in the eye and say she isn't worth helping. Potter Family we stand with you and we stand with the President!!!!!!

yada yada

We have about a 68% passing rate in US high schools and that number grows smaller each year. You're talking about college? Government schools are designed to produce factory workers. That's it.

If parents don't care enough about their children to get involved, follow up with their studies, keep them off the street, off of drugs, off of each other so that they don't become teen parents, nothing will ever change.

Today's society is full of Adult aged children that accept NO responsibility for themselves and they breed more of the same blood sucker, welfare mentality year after year.

"Right To Healthcare"? Give me a break people. Too many Americans have their hands out for free stuff yet they aren’t willing to be productive.

College? Forget that. Survival skills and independent responsibility comes before anything else. Half of you people vote for government that promises to wipe your Rear End so you won't have to and you talk about global competition?

What A Joke! Grow up!

I get sick of the self righteous who think they will always be in a position to take care of themselves. They may be one health issue or job loss away from having no health care. Theirs will be the first hands out for a hand out if it happens to them!

"Gary Johnson's 7 Principles of Good Government

1) Become reality driven. Don't kid yourself or others. Find out what's what and base your decisions and actions on that.

2) Always be honest and tell the truth. It's extremely difficult to do any damage to anybody when you are willing to tell the truth—regardless of the consequences.

3) Always do what's right and fair. Remember, the more you actually accomplish, the louder your critics become. You've got to learn to ignore your critics. You've got to continue to do what you think is right. You've got to maintain your integrity.

4) Determine your goal, develop a plan to reach that goal, and then act. Don't procrastinate.

5) Communicate. Make sure everybody who ought to know what you're doing knows what you're doing.

6) Don't hesitate to deliver bad news. There is always time to salvage things. There is always time to fix things. Henry Kissinger said that anything that can be revealed eventually should be revealed immediately.

7) Be willing to do whatever it takes to get your job done. If you've got a job that you don't love enough to do what it takes to get your job done, then quit and get one that you do love, and then make a difference.

Do reward President Obama for bringing home our heroic soldiers from the Republican Iraq war, where thousands were maimed and killed, even after no weapons of mass destruction were found. Do reward President Obama for killing Osama bin Laden and avenging thousands of lives lost in NYC and helping to keep future Americans safe. Even now, reward him for trying to extract our soldiers responsibly from Afghanistan, another war he inherited.

Where were people living that gas wasn't $3.89 or $3.99 a gallon or more under Bush? That was one of the reasons I voted for President Obama. I was paying $1.05 under Clinton and during Bush's term, gas prices steadily rose. Again, President Obama gets accused of lies and the Romney machine just keeps on "pumping" the lies out.

Get off your high horse and go and adopt a black crack baby like my white aunt did. You are all such hypocrites! You wouldn't help an abandoned child but you care so much about all these unborn children. Such bunk. Republicans complaining about food stamps (President Obama is doing what Jesus would do) and not caring whether up to 40 million people can find affordable health care. All these "Christians" are going to have to answer to God too for their cold hearts.

Quit talking about blood and go out and do something. Adopt as many unwanted crack babies as you can. Such righteous hypocrites . . .
