Rich like Romney take care of own

I can’t believe that anyone with common sense and an ability to grasp the general idea of any given situation would agree to vote for Mitt Romney. He obviously has a lot of so-called one-percenters backing his campaign.

I’m not saying that the so-called one-percenters are all bad for the United States, I wouldn’t even suggest that, but I do believe that the ones backing Romney have the mentality of tearing down the middle class to feed their financial machine. I believe Romney and his friends have been called rich and successful businessmen, but my opinion of them is that they are vultures that tear lives apart to become successful.

If Romney and his kind would act in that way toward the American middle class, I can only imagine what his relations with other countries would be.
