Obama renews push with young voters as polls suggest support softening

Fort Collins, Colorado (CNN) – Kicking off a three-state tour of college towns on Tuesday, even as Republicans hold their convention, President Obama told students in Iowa that his rivals are actively trying to keep young voters home come Election Day.

“Last week my opponent's campaign went so far as to write you off as a lost generation. That's you, according to them,” Obama told a crowd that numbered 6,000 at Iowa State, his first of two stops Tuesday. “What they hope is that by telling you these things you'll get discouraged and you'll just stay home this time. But you can't - you can't believe it”

The push for younger voters has become a key strategy of the Obama campaign, which overwhelmingly won those under the age of 30 in 2008 by a margin of 66-32 percent, according to exit polling.

While the president continues to garner a strong advantage in the demographic, there are signs it is weakening. A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll of registered voters suggests the president currently holds a 56-37 percent lead among those between the ages of 18-29. Moreover the campaign acknowledges it is going to be difficult to match the intensity of four years ago when voters under 30 made up 18 percent of the electorate – among the highest presidential turnout of that demographic in modern history.

“As tough as times have been, you're tougher,” Obama also said. “I've seen your passion, I've seen your service, I've seen your generation eager and impatient to make a difference. And already you've proved that you can.”

The Obama Campaign notes more than 15 million young people have become eligible to vote since 2008. But many of these new voters came of age not during the “Hope and Change” era of the president’s first campaign, but during the prolonged recession and bleak employment outlook that has followed.

Still, Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki insists that “young people are going to come out and support President Obama because he’s taken action important to their generation.”

But the Romney campaign too is pushing for the youth vote, arguing the president’s policies have caused college costs to skyrocket while making it more difficult for recent high school and college graduates to find a job.

“After nearly four years in office, the President has left young Americans facing higher unemployment, mounting debt, rising costs, and fewer opportunities in the Obama economy. They deserve better,” campaign spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg said.

Obama next heads to Fort Collins, Colorado, where he is expected to make similar remarks on the campus at Colorado State. On Wednesday, he heads to Charlottesville, Virginia, for a rally just outside the gates of UVA, the University of Virgina.

The two-day swing is largely intended to steal some of the media spotlight away from the Republican National Convention, which kicked off Tuesday. In his remarks in Iowa, the president said he expects the event to be a “pretty entertaining show.”

“I'm sure they'll, you know, have some wonderful things to say about me,” he joked.

    This is a great decent man who avoided a 2nd Depression in this Wonderful Country. He did what he had to do cleaning up bush mess. George had no intetion of paying for 2 wars. He had the economic sence of a 4 year old. time for the rich to pay their fair share including tax evading Mr personality Mitt.

      Tell me Willis, what is their fair share? Who makes this decision. Is it people from the 46 percent that are currently paying no federal taxes? And what will allowing the tax cuts to expire for those making over 250K actually do? The CBO has already reported this will only increase revenue 70 billion each year for the next ten years. How exactly will this small sum decrease a deficit growing over 1 trillion each year. Are you certain that our current President prevented a second depression, or did he extend the current recession? Remember that President Obama placed a tax evader in charge of the IRS.

      • ronb

        Wow. ....and you want to make a tax evader president. Yeah, "only 70B" a year in savings. Over ten years, that's only 700B. Sounds really nice when you recall republicans' fight to cut 1T in spending, doesn't it? Don't be so blinded by the politics of it. If republicans had gathered around to support OUR COUNTRY instead of gathering to figure out how to ruin the president, would we be in this position now??

        Ron B – McCain released the same – two years – of taxes and it wasn't an issue. You lib lap dogs are a riot – Obama says lets make up an issue our stupid lib friends can get behind us on. Anything to avoid what this con man in the WH has actually done.
        At least we don't hear "he saved the auto industry" anymore. I guess the libs finally realize that was just another line Obama threw out there for his blind followers... GM still owes us billions we will never see – that is success to a lib I guess.

        August 29, 2012 at 8:42 am |
      • Caramon

        Ron, please feel free to provide any facts that show Mitt Romney evaded paying taxes. Who exactly was trying to cut 1 trillion in expenditures? The President submitted a 3.7 trillion dollar budget that would increase not decrease spending. It was voted down in the Senate 99-0. That would include every Democratic Senator as well as Republican. Do you honestly believe that 47 million people on food stamps, 8.3 percent unemployment and increasing the deficit more than 1 trillion each year is best for the country? The point is that the expiration of the tax cuts our President is pushing for will do absolutely nothing to reduce the deficit as reported by the CBO.

      • tom

        I see the idiots are out in full force.

        All evidence points to 1) Obama's stimulus turning the economy around and 2) we needed more of it, which republicans blocked. republicans also held the economy hostage and caused massive harm to it as a result during the debt ceiling debate. and the rich paying a fair share would simply be the same tax rate as everyone in the middle class. the 46% of people who don't pay a federal income tax don't because they're kids, or retirees, or poor as shit- people who simply can't pay it. the super rich can pay it.

        August 29, 2012 at 10:32 am |
      • tom

        also the auto industry turn around was huge, those companies were going to die and now theyre thriving. thats a lot of jobs saved.

        August 29, 2012 at 10:40 am |
      • Caramon

        Tom, if I understand your comments you believe that 54 percent of the population are rich and the other 46 percent are poor. I thought that poverty was only 15.7 percent. The 46 percent is a number that represents households not children, retirees and so forth. If the wealthy population does not pay taxes as you state, and we know 46 percent of the households doesn't pay taxes, then where exactly do you believe the money is coming from? As far as the stimulus turning the economy around, have you actually looked at the economy. There has never been any real growth. Businesses know that the money invested in infrastructure, tax cuts and small business credits are only temporary fixes. Businesses need something more permanent for incentive to hire. As far as more stimulus, I think you will find plenty of economic experts that will state that the continued increase in the deficit will be a big problem in the future. The President cannot continually remove money from the private sector for the public sector and drive the economy forward.

      I think this article says it all: "But many of these new voters came of age not during the “Hope and Change” era of the president’s first campaign, but during the prolonged recession and bleak employment outlook that has followed." ........And "more difficult for recent high school and college graduates to find a job."..... And "the President has left young Americans facing higher unemployment, mounting debt, rising costs, and fewer opportunities in the Obama economy." Perhaps you missed the long unemployment lines, a huge increase in the Food banks, soup kitchens, high gas prices, etc....

        I grew up in the middle of this "Hope and Change" era you seem to remember with little facts. I remember the US economy bleeding 750,000 jobs a month, 2 unlawful wars, and a Senate Minority leader saying that their number one goal is to make this president a one term president....fast forward today.....positive job growth(granted not enough, but where are the republican jobs plans), one war ended, another country liberated without** a single American soldiers life loss, and a Republican Presidential nominee who says "corporations are people".....thanks I'll take Obama any days

        Perhaps you should ask Mr. Boehner and Mr. McConnell "Where are the jobs!?" That is why republicans won the 2010 elections, isn't it. Their mantra was JOBS, JOBS, JOBS! Since winning the election, their efforts have been ABORTION, ABORTION, ABORTION. Classic bait and switch. Can't believe so many people are ready to fall for it again. incredible.

The idealistic, naive, gullible, vulnerable, young people are the easy marks ... the low hanging political fruit, this charlatan is pandering to, in order to hold onto his power. Thanks to obama's failed policies of the last 3 1/2 years, he has America's economic survival hanging by a thread. Even with the biased, partisan, main stream media pitching and protecting Obama at every turn, the American people are finally seeing the truth about this liar and thief. On November 6th, America still has a chance to restore our country to it's former exceptionalism ... by dumping Obama ... and electing Romney & Ryan !!!

      You sound like you have been fully indoctrenated into the Obama gang. As seems to be the norm now for Obama supporters, you can not defend your idol's terrible performance as president and all you have left is to try to blame others. Face it Obama has failed or lied about every promise he made in 2008. Including deviding the country as no other presidnet has. Try thinking for yourself and realize that allowing Obama to think for you is a dreadful mistake and look at the facts. Another 4 years of Obama will be a diasater for our economy and America. There is nothing wrong with expecting people to EARN their way instyead of stealing money from tax payers that DO work. Grow up and EARN your own way and stop allowing Obama to tell you it's ok to live off others hard work.

        Obamas slogan he is for the Middle Class is right on. He needs us go pay for the millions of illegals up to the age of 30 who can now get SS numbers and sign into college grants and benefits they never will pay into because they are going to school, or working under the table. If Obamas people told the truth about how many millions of illegals there are signing into that program there would be a Civil War. If the told the truth about the amount of people under 30 streaming in here from the Latin
        South, he would never get reelected.

      The rich are the only ones who pay their fair share. The bottom 47% of income earners pay NO federal income tax at all. The top 1% pay 40% of all income taxes. Romney would give a tax cut to everyone, but nearly half the country already pays nothing and just mooches off the other half.

      (1) There was a second depression – he did not avoid it, it happened, during the time period he said would be a recovery. It might not have been a "great" depression, but there are rules for what makes a "depression" and the "great recession" met them.

      (2) Bush had two unpaid wars and stimulus borrowed from China. Obama had two unpaid wars and stimulus borrowed from China. He continued every Bush policy that you claim led to the trouble. True, there was an Iraq withdrawl, but met with an Afghani surge. True, we steped out/down from Iraq, but on the time table in the treaties signed by Bush – not on the time table Obama ran on.

      (3) What makes something a "fair share"? If you believe that fairness is a system where taxes are based off of the surplus wealth of those who make more than is needed to survive – then we have such a system, where the bottom half of society does not pay direct income tax (only sales, property, etc) and others pay more the higher than make.

      Thus, Romney likely paid MILLIONS of dollars more in tax than you did this year (unless you also pay millions each year). True, his "tax rate" might be lower than yours (if you make enough to PAY taxes in the first place), but Obama's was only a few points higher (both were lower than mine, and I make MUCH less) – but capital gains taxes are lower, because they are taxes on taxed money (double taxation). Add in the coporate tax on those, and Romney has one of the highest tax rates in the country.

      A truely fair tax system, however, would not look at how much someone makes, but how much of the government's servicies someone consumes. That 46% ride on roads they barely pay for, recieve benefits they never paid into or will pay back to society, and recieve public educations that they never compensate for with taxes is not just unfair – it is theft! So, you might not want to use "fairness" as a rhetorical point – since "fair" and "how I wish the universe was" are NOT the same things.

      (4) – To the article / president – the "lost generation" is not a slight on young people. They are not "lost" as in "not knowing where they are or how to proceede" they are "lost" as in "abondonded, neglected, and cast aside."

      My many un/under employed friends in their 20's and 30's have lost half a decade of job development, pay growth, mortgage payment, and hope. Even if the economy turned around today, it will take them years of continued personal austerity to pay off their homes, send their children to college, and prepare for retirement.

      Those years they will never get back. That time is what is lost for them, since the best the economy can do it get them started – at a time when the next generation will be starting as well – demanding that either this coming generation be likewise delayed, or compelling the "lost" generation to live a generation behind in earning, savings, and owning.

      WHAT YOU MEAN WILLS ??? ... Obama has always been a coward. After registering minorities to vote in Illinois, he ran for senate, only to cancel out their votes, by disqualifying his opponent (a black woman) on a technicality. Obama attended Wrght's church for TWENTY YEARS, to create a political base in the Black community ... only to throw Wright under the bus, when it benefited him, for political expediency. Obama ruthlessly used baseless character assassination to destroy the reputations of all who stood in the way of his self-serving ambitions. Obama is a lying snake oil salesman, who will say, or do anything to hold onto power. America is much more important than Obama ... Obama is replaceable ... America is not ...

        "Now rldide me this..." I don't think it is any rldide. Mr. Obama has appointed himself King/Dictator. Has the "King" thought through how he plans to control these people once he gives them all amnesty. The agendas of many of these people may not be compatible with his. Has he given this any thought? The "Left" complained endlessly about how George W. Bush was a "tyrant" or was trying to be a "King." Now when faced with a far more blantant usurper of powers that are not constituntionally his, the "Left" is silent. From this I think we can conclude that the "Left" is unconcerned about "dictators." Their concern actually lies elsewhere and the "dictator" slur leveled against Mr. Bush was actually a cover for something else.

      Is that why this great man just put millions of illegals, still crossing the border as fast as they can get here, on Social Security and Tax IDs so they can dip into our benefits and free college from federal grants they will never in a million years pay back? Why is PEW and Obamas politicians afraid to admit how many "it's the right thing to do" people 30 and under we are now paying for? The million they admitted to is so low-balled they are afraid to tell the truth because Obama would never get reelected. Americans are treated like idiots and lied to so badly by this administration, Mexicans, Hispanics and your great Obama that it's disgusting. I'm tired of Mexican anchor babies telling us America is "changed" because they are now here to take over, and given a free ride to do so. I'm voting for anyone but Obama.

    Many young voters who voted for Obama in 2008 were seeking change from the Bush administration and its policies and Obama promised change, however most have become disenchanted over the change that Obama brought, it was not the change they were expecting....this time around they are more watchful of what dialog Romney brings to the table and if it appears that he brings the change they expected in Obama, then Romney will get their vote.......

    I find it interesting that people are comparing this election to the Presidential elections of 1980 and 1992. In both of those,
    Carter and Bush, Sr. (respectively) were incumbents who lost, presumably, due to a bad economy. However, upon closer examination, you'll find two factors: 1) Carter also had the additional baggage of the Iran Hostage Situation and
    his failure to resolve that crisis helped to portray him as a weak and ineffective leader. A fuel crisis and racial tensions
    in Florida in the spring 1980 didn't help. 2) Bush, Sr. was seen by many young voters as old and out of touch with
    outdated ideas and zero charisma. True, Obama has the economy to deal with, but does the GOP have anyhting better?
    Mitt? Ryan? Yeah, that is about the size of it. . .

    the GOP made it harder to get a job by stalling every job creation bill Obama put forth...just like McConnell promised they would do in 2010 in his speech. dont be fooled, know the truth!

    • Steveo

      "dont be fooled, know the truth!"? Wise words. but the truth is NO bill stands on it's own but is back loaded with STUFF that is worthy of a sewer system and BOTH parties do it! So it is REAL easy to say somebody stalled a jobs bills but give no details as to what else was sandwiched into that bill! THAT is the truth so don't be fooled!

        the truth is the house republicans have stalled every single major bill democrats have put forward, and they've done it by abusing the filibuster repeatedly. the GOP tactics for winning this election basically boil down to 3 things- super pacs, stalling the economy and killing jobs to make obama look bad, and voter suppression to keep minorities from voting. its disgusting.

      Jobs aren't created by the government by passing a "jobs bill", they are created by gov't getting out of the way of business, by deregulating business and not over taxing business. That is what the Republicans mean by creating jobs....they don't intend to create wasteful, useless, gov't jobs, or by spending nearly a trillion in "stimulus" and giving it to companies like Solyndra that create about 6 jobs for $750,000 each and then go bankrupt. Stop looking to the gov't to provide for you.

        OLD,,, like King so-n-so from England, (all those guys thinking they are better than Cynthia L.)

        OLD,,, like the guy from Germany we cannot talk about (shickelgrubber, never was for Freedom for aybody but Boot Lickers)

        OLD,,, like that old guy in Cuba (castro, never was for Freedom, and was happy to bury his fellow "cubans")

        OLD,,, like the guy from France (nepolean, never was for Freedom)

        OLD,,, like the guy in Venezuela (chavez,,,they used to be for Freedom, but bought into the Gubment Owned everything),

        OLD,,, like the guy in Iran (used to be for Freedom and we even taught the Iranian Gubment how to fly US Military Jets)

        Wanna sit down and talk about your Individual Liberty and HOW YOUR GUBMENT is WORKING FOR YOU?

    hat Washington insiders eventually work for lobby firms daily promoting powerful interests is now a given. We the People that once ran government, maybe a hundred years ago, has become “Them” the People.

    What’s a joke is American politics. Nearly everyone in the country would agree, judging by congressional approval ratings in national polls.

    Super PACs, Religion, & Lobbyists: “The Tea Party is funded by Koch Industries, or Big Oil. The Koch brothers gave over $55 million in bribes to scientists to say global warming is a hoax. They are a vast political network, sponsoring Christian conservative rallies and funding political ad campaigns nationwide. They are instrumental in busting unions and they pushed for the Citizens United/ ‘corporations are people’ law.”

    The country needs to wake up and take the "Common Sense" vote and its sure not for Mitt Romney. If this country plans to run our country by the person that has the most money in his pockets and the most campaign money, that's the first wrong mistake we are making. Healthcare will not be affordable, not everyone will be able get insured that needs it! By cutting out "Free Stuff" per Romney in the Affordable Care Act is going to cost the states, government and Americans more money!! Seniors will be paying more from all the "Medicade" cuts, there will be more Americans needing welfare assist through the government programs, someone who has a disease could live longer if it was early detected. These preventative tests and birth control, we need all of these in our country. This saves lives and saves money!!! Mitt Romney, you plan is absolutley wrong. I am not running for president but I feel I can do a better job than you are doing, so with that said money has no business in determining who can run this country and what is best for the American people. President Obama is the first person, who got anything passed in "Health Care", he has sold plans that are not going to cripple the Americans physically and not going cripple us financially. You expect everyone to go to college and ask their parents "Really" In this econmoy, what parent have any money??? Have you not noticed the parents are all still working and they are struggling themselves. If the parents can survive, do you really think they will be able to financially be able to help their child or children. Yes, we all want to but only if it's possible! The economy is a mess!
    With you Mitt, that is all we are going to get and how would anyone be able to afford to go to college. You have no solid plans for anyone or in any positions that you stand in for this country. This is exactly why the next President will be Mr. Obama and not you.

      I do not understand why above my comment it says "Awaiting Moderation" Please forgive me if I have offended anyone by telling the truth and no it's not my place to tell anyone who to vote for. I can voice that there are drastic differences between Barrack and Romney on how they plan to run our country. By their plans, you can get the feel of what direction it will lead our country. Read the paper, online, watch television and listen and you will see. Alot of Americans are unsure. Feed back is always a good thing for anyone in life, no matter who you are. No one is perfect, except for God. Did you not see all the type o's mistakes I made in my writting. lol. Pick the person with the best vision for our future.

      What does that mean Keeker? What is pathetic? Name calling. This approach to airing ones feelings lends itself to school yard bully mentality. Also for the increasing number of republican people blogging on these pages, what is is that is missing in your statements? I think, it is facts? It is hard to decipher logic and empirical facts from anything that most repubs are saying on these blogs but I do get a sense that Repubs are still covertly angry at G Bush , but were too afraid to air there feelings at that time in fear of being ostrisized by your party for not following along and agreeing with the robotics of a republican platform. Fast forward and Juxtipose the two presidents and you really can't complain about Obama's efforts. So name calling only shows how limited people are in their ability to argue and debate points. Given the mountainous hole Obama has tried to dig your country out of economically,it holds no substance when Repubs attempt to frame the time lines a such that OBama put your country into this mess. It is illogical to attempt to argue points that are inane. Ie business isn't hiring because of Obama. Is it not congress's job to create the policy that the Prez signs off on? Was it not the prez that got the house and senate together umpteen times in an effort to get a economic solution and jobs bill? Is it not the prez that is saying and research this if you will, that he is very willing to work across the aisle to pass legislation? Is Beohner even at work right now? Would it not be smart for the REP House to pass something bipartisan to make them look good before the election.......... etc

      Don't be silly. nominating Romney hood was just the first step towards making Jeb Bush the nominee in 2016. The GOP knew Romney had no chance, but the guy just wouldn't go away! He's been dogging the GOP for 10 years!! Now, he can have his shot, get slammed into the dirt, and run away with his tail between his legs. Then, in 2016, the GOP will put forth Jeb Bush for the presidency. If Willard wins, it kinda screws the whole plan.... Play chess; not checkers.

    Just talking about college students in general I think Obama is set. Unless the college student is getting their college paid for by their parents no sane college student would vote for Romney. Mainly because both Ryan and Romney seem to see education as useless and talk about cutting federal financial aid. Which would lower the number of college graduates. Not only that, but Mitt also made things worse for college students in MA when he cut state aid to colleges and the colleges raised tuition to recover the cost

    Obama is clearly the lesser of two mediocre choices for the middle class. Romney is clearly the choice for the upper class.

      Um, no. This "youngster" thinks we have a good government that simply needs to be reformed to run more efficiently; I don't want to see it dismantled and sold-off to billionaire investors. I think Ryan's "rich people we can believe in" budget plan is absurd and insulting and defies all decency and logic. Why should we give more of our shared investments away, for super-rich individuals to invest on behalf of themselves, in overseas markets - and free of charge? I don't want to see our social contract dissolved and elderly people forced to beg for services that their minescule "vouchers" couldn't possibly cover.

      What's more, the general attitude of The Republican Party and their core constituancy, is totally devoid of tact and compassion. They are cruel, secretive, uncouth and incapable of having a genuine debate of ideas. Maybe if their party ideology didn't demonize inquiry and critical thinking, things would be different. But just try having a neutral conversation with them; it immediately resorts to lines repeated ver batim from Conservative idols (with no credit to resources, I must add), childish name calling or slackjawed yokel jokes - "Heee haw, how many OBUMMERS does it take to swing a dead bobcat? ONE, cause one spins it all around! HAR har hee har!"

      So, no, "it comes down to this", I can't say that I agree with you. Nice attempt trying to speak for young people, though. Mitt should stick to the people he's really trying to bring out: elderly voters. He can explain to them that vouchers are good for bartering and as long as they don't tell the government, they can try selling them to pay for the cat food they'll be forced to eat, once they would no longer be receiving benefits from social security.

      I'm tired of the insinuation by Obama that we are stupid. The only stupid people are the ones who vote for him because he is a black man, because he "seems" cool, because he says what you want to hear based on his audience... Insulting. The rest of us can see right through him and he makes us sick. How can anyone with a mind of their own, vote for this failure???

      Yes he is pitting these groups against each other, but I disagree with the blacks against white. I believe the Republicans and white people are doing that themselves. With the Troy Davis case and constantly attacking public services that they think help black people. That is my assumption of why that is occuring. The poor should be against the rich, because they do not care to help the poor they only want the poor's money to make themselves richer. That is the capitalism of America. Young should go against the old. The old people want to get rid of the debt over thinking about my educational security. They don't care about cutting education to fix a debt that they allowed their politics to do.1

        Howard ..... Romney will do to America what he did to Bain capital

        Where the Money Lives
        For all Mitt Romney’s touting of his business record, when it comes to his own money the Republican nominee is remarkably shy about disclosing numbers and investments. Nicholas Shaxson delves into the murky world of offshore finance, revealing loopholes that allow the very wealthy to skirt tax laws, and investigating just how much of Romney’s fortune (with $30 million in Bain Capital funds in the Cayman Islands alone?) looks pretty strange for a presidential candidate.

    Romney will take the country backwards. Why do you think that there is a concerted effort for voter suppression? It's very obvious what the republicans are doing. Just watch the voting returns from these three states during election night: Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Do a little research on the Koch brothers and note the various federal violations that they have committed concerning their business operations. Then you should be able to see their hand print on republican party's platform,

    what I want to know is what/how Romney is going to guarantee that the banks/hedge funds never cause another meltdown like in 2007/2008? If that happens again it'll destroy the economy this time vs just putting us into a major recession. What's he going to do? If all out savings are in the bank or invested in 401K/IRAs and our SS is sitting in some mutual fund, we cannot afford another financial crisis. The 1% can handle it, we cannot. If I want to vote for R&R, I want to know what THEY WILL DO. The democrats want to try to restrict the thieves/gamblers from doing it (the Dodd-Frank bill). At least the democrats are trying, what are the republicans doing?

    1st Romney criticizes Obama on the comment about business doing well, then he himself says close to the same thing.
    2nd Now Romney has joined the birther party.
    3rd now R/R have amended their health care plan. What, the original wasn't correct? Question on the voucher: does this mean you no longer have to look for a doctor that will accept medicare? They can charge what they want? Cost increase here we come. The voucher is to help pay for private health insurance. As we all know the premiums for reasonable insurance is high. Also insurances WILL NOT cover pre-existing conditions... therefore the vouchers are useless... especially for the elderly that usually have pre-existing conditions.

    With all the baggage that Romney is bringing he would never be betrayed in this light and some would elect him knowing he is for the wealthy. The GOP convention if you watched it was a disaster everyone got up and talked about themselves and at the end of their speeches they finally mentioned his name.

      Anytime the cost of something is subsidized to the consumer the cost goes up because more people can "afford" it. All this does is push the price out of people's reach again. This creates bubbles, see housing, education. The government should be funding the education of thousands of sociology or psychology degrees. People should go to college to gain skills for a job, then pay back their educational loans using the money they earn. Just like a small business must make investments before turning a profit.

    If you're a middle/working class American, then Romney/Ryan are NOT for you. The only groups that will truly benefit in a Romney/Ryan Presidency are for the following: Rich people, Military, and Law Enforcement. If you're not in any of those groups you're essentially screwed. The Rich will benefit first because it's their interest and agenda that will be priority. The Military, because they're going to get them busy again with "nation-building", or spend on a useless enterprise like "Star Wars" or something like that, and law enforecement, because when they start cutting from a lot of social programs, it's naturally going to make a lot of people upset, and you got to maintain order. I'm not downing the military or law enforcement at all, (quite the contrary, they're very much needed in our society). What I'am downing is how the Republicans, and a Romney Presidency would use those groups as tools; not for national defense or maintaining social peace, but for the selfish and greedy agenda of the super-rich and far-right war-hawks. As far as everyone else is concerned, you better figure it out. President Obama has done a lot over the last four years for the interest of middle/working class Americans. Sure, things have been tough, and the recovery slow, but at least the country is going in the right direction. As much as the Romney and the Republicans bash Obama, where are THEIR better ideas and solutions? What do they have that's different and better than what Obama is offered? Can a right winger on here actually offer something that's better? Or can all you do is bash the President with insults and Fox News type psuedo-facts. Come November, there will be a stark choice to make for sure. Hope people will realize this...OBAMA/BIDEN, 2012!

      You know something J, not all of us have insulted the President but have discussed his policies. We have not used Democratic talking points like felon, killer or tax evader. You may notice these are personal attacks aimed at Romney. The focus, instead, of my talking points has been on policy. In 1980, unemployment was high, inflation was high and interest rates through the roof. Some believe the economy was in worse shape then than it was in this current recession. Ronald Reagan, who had to work with a Democratic Congress, is reported by Forbes to have created an average of 350 K jobs a month. The economy not only moved in the right direction, it was one of our biggest economic growth periods. It was done by decreasing government spending and decreasing taxes. He put more confidence in the private sector to create those jobs.

      The President believes it is best to take money out of the private sector and employ in the public sector with infrastructure jobs. Jobs in construction, fire fighting even police are not jobs that require a college education. Police go to an academy. I have never seen a student go to college for a degree in road construction or fire fighting. Teaching is the only exception. So, our President emphasizes college education mostly for employment in the private sector. However, he removes money from the private sector to fund jobs in the public sector. See the problem? Forbes stated economy growth over the past four years was only 4 percent. Jobs created is about 150K per month, below population growth. The only way for unemployment to go in this economy is up.

      Romney and Ryan want to return to the policies that produced the big economic growth period. It worked before. It will work again. This is what the middle class needs, not more welfare and food stamps.

        Did you even read what I posted. It has nothing to do with those with a college education against those without. The President has emphasized that infrastructure is the key to economic growth. Infrastructure is government jobs. It almost sounded like you are unsatisfied with the status quo. Why then would you vote for 4 more years of the same. Taxes are the means to take money out of the private sector and place it into the hands of the government.

I am liberal, but the things people say even from liberals is outrageous. Maybe one day someone will spread information that is backed by an unbiased source. In economics, it takes at minimum 4-5 years before the effects of policies are seen. We are still living through the Bush economic policies. This is a fact, not an attack at Bush. Maybe some of you people will research how political economics works on the national level before attacking my comment.

    When was the last time Obama talked about the economy, or his record. He promised to cut the deficit in half by his first term. It is up 50%. National debt is up 5.3 trillion or more than Bush accumulated in 8 years. Obama promised unemployment would remain below 8% if Congress passed the $800 billion stimulus. It is 8.2% and rising and we are out $800 billion. If Obama could run on his record he would. However, his record is a failure so he can only demonize Romney.

    Romney is a rational adult with an employment record of turning failing enterprises around. Obama's America is a failing enterprise in need of a turn around. Obama is incompetent, Romney is the man for the job.

    Two people were ejected from the convention for throwing nuts at a black camera woman, telling her, "This is how we feed animals."
    That's exactly how they treated the RON PAUL SUPPORTERS!! Changing the rules at the last minute to avoid announcing the delegates they had won. Also, sticking them up in the nosebleed section behind America Somoa and the Marianna's.
    And, what was totally pathetic was Ann begging for women to vote for her husband. CHOKED.
    So, the Gov.'s that were speaking all talked about themselves except for the last minute for Robme. Had to laugh at Kasich forgetting that his state benefited from the Auto Bailout and that his state is heavily into voter suppression in the Democratic districts. Do they think we don't read the different news sources on this story alone?
    And, the continuing lie that the JOBS required to collect Welfare had been taken out earned them 4Pinochio's from the Washington Post on the lie they think if said enough us WHITE VOTERS will believe it. No wonder they have to cheat and lie – THEY ARE LOSERS!!
    Experts saying Mitt needs at least 61% of the 'white vote' to win. He isn't carrying the lead with any one demographic.
    The guy is toast.

      Why does everything have to fall back on color or race? If the black or asian decide that they want to be democrats, it is their right to do so and that also applies to the white people. If white people choose to be republicans then so be it. I would like all black people to remember who gave them their freedom....it definitely was not the democrats and now they still enslaving them by offering them entitlements rather than jobs to better support themselves and become independant. Democrats want to keep the black people in their place.....dependant on government so they will always get their votes.

    Obama is touring colleges because so far they are one of the only demographics who have hopes and dreams that have not been crushed yet (and spring breaks and keggers). Ask the recent college graduates living in their parents basement who can't find a job how they feel now. I am sure they are kicking themselves for voting Obama in 2008.

    Yeah, I counted Mia and Davis. Didn't see any Mexican Americans either. Christy was so deperate he was demanding people to Stand up. Get up on your feet! The audience wasn't moved by anything up to that point until he looked like he might THROW HIS WEIGHT AROUND!....Yikes! BWAH HA HA

      MORE B.S. FROM CYNTHIA L. ... obama marches out his cast of minorities for photo ops, to give the false impression that he gives a damn. Where were the Mexican Americans, Cynthia asks ... Well, where was obama's promised help for latinos, during the first 3 years of his Presidency ... NOW, that obama, and his stooges are desperate to hold onto power, they ACT like they care. People were HAPPY to stand up for Chris Chrisie ... as he inspired, and united the audience ... as opposed to obama, and his stooges, who pit Americans against each other, to win the election at ANY cost. America is much, much more important than obama. Obama is expendable and replaceable ... America is NOT. Save America ... Replace Obama with Romny and Ryan in November !!!

        Suck it up, Howard. Chris Christie's speech had the word "I" 47 TIMES! He mentioned Mitt's name only 8 times!!
        Ann was all LOVE,LOVE,LOVE, I LOVE WOMEN!!!! (maybe but, women don't love yer husband, dearie-doo.)
        THEN the BIG Christie theme was – "We have become paralyzed by our desire to be loved!" (Haha) And, "Choose Respect over Love." (who? the guy he is supposed to be talking up? Nah, we don't respect him, either.)

        When reporters were calling them out on the lie that they kept up about the no jobs for welfare crap. The Romney Campaign came out with a statement saying "WE are NOT going to let our campaign be controlled by FACT CHECKERS! BWAH-HA-HAhahahahhahaha!!!! Like that's gonna work.
        Lots of AKIN buttons attached to the participants walking around the convention area. Huckabee is speaking – OH GOODY- MORE RELIGIOUSITY CHEST THUMPING ( reason women cant' stand the GOP)
        Oh, the only Cuban in Texas is there speaking. Wonder if he'll mention the United Nations plot on environmental issues that threaten GOLF COURSES AND PAVED ROADS in Texas?? Beep-beep. The weinermobile guy is speaking later. HOT DOG!!!

      Obama had all the talk and look at the mess he has our country in right now. It is not what you say, it is your actions that counts and his actions have been disasterous. So we do not need 4 more years of Obama's telecompter speeches. We need Romney/Ryan business sense to bring our country back on track.

        To 1freeHelmet Boy,
        I counted 7 black folks that included Condi
        3 Asian-Americans
        I Susanna Martinez -- NOT A BIG TENT after Chris Christie took the most fabric.
        Ron Paul left the convention in a huff and went back to Texas early, leaving his kissy-butt son to kissy-butt the best he could to preserve a place to run for Pres. next time.
        Oh, yeah, Paul Ryan is so-oooo confident that he'll be on the winning ticket as V.P., THAT HE IS STILL RUNNING FOR HIS SEAT IN CONGRESS at the same time. Gotta look out for that job security AND THAT GOVERNMENT PAYCHECK.

    this bozo wont be happy till everyone is dependant on welfare and i think for anyone with common since and not living solely on goverment aid that obvious. Not to mention the fact that hes FOR illegal immagration which makes me sick. I mean what good are laws if our president doesnt even uphold them, other than the ones that benefit him. Im sick of hearing people saying they vote for him cuz hes going to take care of them. LIES LIES LIES... get real this guy will say and do whatever to get re elected and i thinks that become quite obvious in this election.

    Romney said no one has ask where he was born...truly sad there is any doubt about obamas birth place. He has not really proven his birth place...his pseudo birth cert does not prove anything, you need not be born i Hawaii to get a cert like that. We need an American President with an American brain...go for it Mitt.
