Thread: Obama's Radical Past and Present, should it be an election topic?

Maybe I am different, but I don't much care about Romney's tax forms nor Obama's school activities. I want to know where they stand on issues.

The best way to judge where they stand on issues is to look at the people who molded and shaped their characters

The People who influenced Obama all his life were radical communists

It bothers me that there are two sets of rules for paying taxes.

Romney's tax returns offer a perfect opportunity to educate the American public about carried interest etc.

Everyone should pay their fair share-- to the extent that is not happening, let's have a conversation about it.

That is a failed and debunked far-right talking point.

Communism only exists in theory, on paper. Communism, as defined, has never been tried in practice.

what they have done and said in the past tells us where they stand on the issues. We know about Romneys education, childhood, and work history. We are not allowed to know anything about obama's past, his education, but we do know that he has no work history, never ran a business or made a payroll, spent his youth with radical socialists and marxists - according to his own books.

Heaven forbid Willard starts talking about tax rates, revenue issues then.

technicaly you are correct. But we need only look at pre-breakup Russia, Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela, Iran, and Mao's China to see the results when communism, socialism, marxism, maoism, or any other form or collectivism has been tried. The always fail, But yet, Obama still clings to the belief that those systems are where the USA should go.

He will talk about tax rates. He wants to keep them low for everyone and balance the budget by cutting the waste out of government. Its working in Wisconsin, Ohio, Louisiana, Texas, and a few other states. It will work at the federal level as well. And thats what liberals fear most, smaller government.

But then...Redress will need to gloss over them....since it would be a matter of Willard "do as I say, not as I do".

what tax code laws has he violated? I understand that you do not like it that people with only investment income pay 15%. but Romney did not make that law, congress did. your gripe is with congress, both parties, if you don't like the tax code.
