The country just did not know what a great President Romney would have made. He was committed to
balancing the budget and creating jobs for Americans and getting our debt paid. We can see what Obamas

our homes from those wanting our food. Shelves in stores will be empty. Pretty much the end of the life we
had, before the election of this so called President.
