It isn't what Mitt had done back in High School that makes him unqualified to be President.

To be honest, I have done a few things that I'm ashamed of. Although I was not a bully I was judgmental and like many of the kids who went to my high school - not very pro-LGBT.

But 20+ years later I've learned alot about what I have done, I've grown from my mistakes, apologized to one person and tried to be a better person overall.

It's not what Mitt had done in High School, it's the fact that I don't think he's changed any 30 years later. If he's willing to deny rights to minorities or LGBT community, if he's not willing to help those who are down on their luck then he's still the same bully he was back in high school.

Bagging on peoples raincoats cause he didn't feel the paid enough for them.

Ripping on his host baked goods

Those things let me know when he gets someone he "feels" is the little guy in front of him he acts with contempt...

IMO does not speak well of his leadership.

He is a greedy Bastid who make his riches at the expense of this country and he doesn't want to pay anything back.
Fuck him and the RayGun horse he rode in on

If he remembers it and thinks it's better to pretend to not remember it than to simply apologize for his actions, he's a sociopathic f*ck who's unqualified to be President.

FIVE people independently asserted that the incident happened. That's beyond plausible denial. So either way he's a sociopathic f*ck.

And yeah, it indicates he hasn't changed. That, plus his current positions on the treatment of minorities. Once a bully, still a bully. Also known as an entitled, smug little prick.
