Campaign 2012 | National Politics

A clear choice for 2012

One good thing about this presidential election is with Romney beholden to the extremists of the far right in order to get the support of the GOP base, the difference between the candidate’s two visions has never been clearer. Take for instance their positions on education policy.

In other words Mr. Romney is effectively saying, it’s every man for himself, while President Obama is saying we’re all Americans and we’re all in this together.

This encapsulates the difference between Obama and Romney and even between Republicans and Democrats in everything from education, to health care, to retirement security. Romney and the Republican party only want you to have as little quality as you can afford. President Obama and the Democratic party want to make the best quality possible, affordable to everyone.
