I know I may have left out a ton of stuff, but here are a few things that came to mind.
Here are a few differences between President Obama and Romney.
Obama believes that women should have a right to choose.
Romney believes that the government should make that choice for you. His VP pick believes that if a woman is raped she should be forced to carry the fetus to term. Romney supported the "personhood amendment", where fertilized eggs will have rights.
He also supported the forced vaginal probes of women. He endorsed Mourdouck who said: "I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen." Romney also supports the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
President Obama believes that women should get paid, equal pay for equal work.. so much so, that the first bill he signed into law was the Lilly Leedbetter Fair Pay Act.
Romney was against The Fair Pay Act and his VP pick Paul Ryan voted against it.
President Obama believes that gays and lesbians should have a right to marry and serve openly in our military.
Romney doesn't believe in same sex marriage and has said he didn't agree with the repeal of don't ask don't tell.
President Obama believes that the economy grows from the bottom up, that middle class families are the backbone therefore they deserve tax cuts.
Romney believes that if you give huge tax cuts to the rich, it will trickle down.
President Obama got us out of the war in Iraq.
Romney said: “It is my view that the withdrawal of all of our troops from Iraq by the end of this year is an enormous mistake."
I7 of Romney's 24 foreign policy advisers who got us into the Iraq war, are now advising Romney on foreign policy.
President Obama believes in climate change and believes that the federal government agencies such as FEMA, should be there to help folks out when they're in need.
Romney doesn't believe in climate change and he said that it was: "immoral" for the federal government to unnecessarily spend money on disaster relief in the face of yawning deficits."
President Obama makes me believe that things can and will get better in this country. Unlike the doom and gloom guys on the other side. President Obama is the guy that makes me feel as though he is talking about an inclusive America. Unlike the other side, who seems to be talking to, and about an exclusive America; where you have to believe in a certain God, and be in love with someone from the opposite sex.
See, the difference between President Obama and his republican opponent is this: President Obama believes that America's best days are ahead of us, and Romney believes that America's best days are behind us. Which is why He'd like to take the country back.. back to the 1950's. We look back to learn from past mistakes, but in order to progress we must look FORWARD!!!
Mitt: "47 percent believe that they are entitled to health care, food, and housing"
Jesus Christ believed they're entitled to those things too, and so do I. I'm sure the President would also agree.
