(CNN)– Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, ran for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008, but John McCain snagged the nomination.
This businessman and politician is keeping a critical eye on how things are shaping up in the presidency he wanted, and he shared his views on Thursday night's "Larry King Live." He gave a sharp critique of President Obama's performance and shared his thoughts on Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin and stem-cell research.
The following transcript is edited for brevity and clarity:
Larry King: Some are seeing a problem with the president doing the "Tonight Show," the first sitting president ever to do a late-evening [talk] show. Do you have a problem with it?
Mitt Romney: Well, this probably isn't the right time for it. I line up with Warren Buffett on this. I prefer to see the president focusing all of his time and energy on the economy.

Learning never stops unless you think you have all the answers. And you never do.
Hear that Mitt?
Everyone learns "on the fly" when they get a new job. I'm so sure that had Romney won the presidency that there would have been zero learning curve for him...
Just more "say anything to get your name in lights" politics.
Someone please tell Romney that Buffet was speaking with regards to President Obama focusing on other policies like healthcare, etc. during the economic mess that was started under Republican rule and not President Obama going on Jay Leno. I think that Mr. Buffet would expect President Obama not to be held up in his office 24/7 staring at economic policies.
Romney, the President has to run the country and is allowed to do other things like travel to see the American people. Perhaps your Republican messiah George W needed to take lessons from Obama and actually work instead of going on vacation during troubling times (ie, Katrina). Hypocrite!!!
Hey Mitt did you ever sell that 20 million dollar Utah ski vacation home?
You really feel the pain don't you dude?
But that is eaxctly what he is doing, Mr. know-all republican! There are many ways to do the same thing, and reaching out to those who do not tune into cable network is one of them
Since you are such a successful businessman, I am sure you know that combining humor with work is the best way to get success yiur way, right???
I think everyone needs to line up with each other and focus all their time and energy on helping the president with the economy and stop with this petty bickering like 3 year olds. We need to get through this mess and if everyone worked together on it, maybe things would happen sooner.As long as the republicans remain in denial, this will never happen.
What ever happened to one nation under God?
It doesn't bother me he is learning on the fly...I think he has enough education and street smarts to know when he is being had....what bothers me is the so called competent Senator and Congress who sign bills on a whimsy....and then try to tax it back when caught. That is the greatest of incompetence. Again, government is by the people and for the people (it's a pluaral term and not meant for a select few).
People are mad right now, and justly so....we won't be had anymore!
This is the man America needs to lead this country. A self made man who has run a successful business. And what has Obama done oh I forgot he is a community organizer. GOD HELP US!!!!!!
Mitt is full of it!
And that is why Mitt is not President. You can't have tunnel vision and focus on 1 thing at a time as President. Sure, the economy is priority 1 right now, and Obama is deeply involved with it, but we've got issues with violence over the border with Mexico, nuclear issues with Iran, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, etc. The President needs to multi-task and he's doing a good job in my view.
CNN i left a comment out here over an hour ago and you did not post it. You post a lot of negative commets from some of the same bloggers daily and I get tired of my comments not be posted.
shut up and help out... words words words... all he does is talk on the fly as well.
Who does this guy think he is? He's so arrogant, god. The sad thing is he still thinks he has a chance of winning the presidency. A Romney/Palin or Palin/Romney could energize the GOP, but I doubt it would take down Obama.
Notice how Obama is following Lincoln's advise. Keep the public opinion at your side, and you will have good governing. Neither Romney nor Palin can possibly do this, they're too negative, and, even when trying to build a good argument; they just sound bitter; not too smart for a politician. Their best chance will be 2016. Things would have to get really really bad in order for Obama to lose in 2012.
Oh, and I'm an Independent. If things get too bad due to his actions, then I won't vote for Obama in 2012; I am NOT partisan.
Every president learns on the fly because there is no primer for that job. You could be a member of the cabinet that runs for Senate and Governor (wins both at different times) who would still be learning on the fly should that person win the presidency. I believe that there are more things that the president does that many people don't know about and things that no one can prepare for when they become president.
The world is a whole lot more complex from when the constitution was first written. I don't think the founding fathers could imagine what goes one in this day and age (or even in the 1940's or the 1840's).
Unlike you Mitt, who needs help to learn. I still remember that look your wife gave you when you said you would continue to run for your party's nomination even after you had sunk so much of your families personal fortune in what was clearly a loosing battle. I think you said something like I'm in this for the long haul. She looked at you like, "Oh yeah"? Next day you withdrew. Would've loved to have been a fly on that wall that night.
You Republicans really need to get a life. Your constant carping and yapping at everything this administration does, reminds me of dogs at the pound barking like "what bought me to this place"?
Dig the analogy?
Spare us, Mittens. It's people like you who helped get us into this mess in the first place. Please go back to pandering to the Limbaugh crowd & leave the rest of us in peace.
Why don't you show what other people are saying so you can comment on what the world really is saying?
Romney, oh sage one!
Another loser speaks!
Those who say it can't be done usually interrupt the one who's doing it.
Just like you republicans did while you were raping the rest of us. You and the Bush/Cheney administration certainly paid close attention to the economy to get all you could out of it before the end of his "decider" reign. Go peddle your criticism to hypocritical self righteous.
Americans deserve the government they vote for (paraphrase from d'Touqueville).
Oh sure Mitt, your Mr. Perfect.....can't the President have some down time....he has been working real hard on the economy and other things....but, there are always the "bullies of the playground" there to put him down....
I would wager that no time would be a good time for the Republicans to see a Democratic President reach out to the people. Seems like hollow gotcha criticism just like Obama's lame attmpt at self depricating humor that will enable critics to fain umbrage. Romney as a leader of the Republican party should be spending his time developing a coherent message for his party vice appearing on Larry King. There I said it, so where does that leave us? My 401K and investments are still in the tank and I have better things to do than listen to this drivel from both sides.
Of course Obama is learning "on the fly"..... this is the first real job he's ever held.
We didn't vote for Romney so his opinions doesn't validate our President.
Hey Mitt...I disagree with Obama's campaign style toownhall...But you should learn that 2012 is 4 years away. So, please go away!
Nobama, as a community leader he thinks he can fix things with a doughnut meeting and a show. He has no experience for the job which is becoming very obvious to those who voted for him. His picks have NO credibilty or ethics, ie Geithner and others. He is spending us into HUGE debt – Spendulous bill. Which can not be blamed on Bush – but I am sure you will find a way. The cannot tell the truth – AIG Bonuses. His party in Congress is repaying all the favors – Earmarks.
This guy is a disaster!!!!
Come on MiIT, you have to admIT, he's great at IT. IT feels good to have a leader whose willing to accept mistakes, ride the tide, and remain standing in the end more focused than before.
On the job training is O.K. in certain places, but not as our leader.
He has no idea of what he is doing. He talks a good game but that's it.
Not a clue of what he's suppossed to do.
Tonight show, basketball brackets – the Duke coach said it best, get back to work!! Stop campaigning, you won, now cut our taxes and quit this deficit spending!
Better to learn on the fly than to learn nothing at all like his predecessor.
Mitt Romney hasn't any special skills that would preclude his needing o learn if he were president.
If he is the best the Republicans have to offer they are in trouble big time.
Yeah, right. You could not even win your party's nomination. That should tell you what your fellow GOP thought of you. You sir are in no position to offer adivice. What you claim to have done is nothing compared to trying to do it nation wide with two political partys that only have ther partys best interest at heart and not the people. The Republican Governors who only want to use part of the stimulus are living proof of tha.
This fool was learning on the fly during his campaign, plus, most companies consider learning on the fly as a positive progressive merit. They key here is LEARNING, and not screwing up on the fly.
Why can't republicans multi-task? Amazing we have a President that can walk and chew gum at the same time! What's Obama supposed to do sit in the oval office and wring his hands.
He did a great job on Leno – he explained a lot in clear language. I think it's a great forum, providing an audience that under normal circumstances may not be paying attention.
We'd be in a bigger world of hurt with a republican president – after all, it's the republican ideology that landed us in this disaster.
Ah, Mittens, you're not a very effective messenger, but I guess you're probably considered the cream of the crop of irrelevant republicans.
If Mitt Romney were president, things would be very different. For one thing, he is an economic genius and proved it by starting and managing Bain Capital. His cabinet would be filled by people who know how to get things done and pay their taxes. Finally, he is as smooth and charming without a teleprompter as he is with one. This guy should have been elected, hopefully he is still alive and healthy in 2012 so he can do for the nation what he did for the Winter Olympics.
Mitt Romney says Obama is "learning on the fly?"
As opposed to W who never seemed to learn anything.
Only if you consider 'learning' as running blindly and ignorant decision making.
Mitt Romney is just a talking suit....Can you imagine him running the country.....God help Us
No crap mitt. Unfortunately the majority of americans dont care about themselves or their kids future. In only a short time, Obama has shown he has NO IDEA what he is doing. He lied and lied and lied, nobody cares!! The country is a disaster!! and he is making jokes about special needs kids on the tonite show. He is making NCAA tournament picks. Enough with this guy!!
And I prefer to see Mitt Romney on the Larry King show rather than in the White House, so I guess Mitt and I both have opinions.
Yawn!
Mitt Romney, you lost, we didn't want you in the White House. Get over it. You again lose in 2012. Your kind is history.
And he is still doing a better job than you or any of your repuglican nominees for the position.
And another thing, I heard you say earlier that "Maybe we can't." Well let me tell you something MITT!
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
YES WE CAN
And when ever somebody poses a question along the lines of possibility of our ability, if any one asks, Can we do this? Can we fix the economy, Can we have universal healthcare, Can we have peace instead of war Can we overcome? This group will always respond with the creed that sums up the spirit of a people, YES WE CAN
a lot of people watch the tonight show, and he is the people's president. I understand why Romney doesn't get it.
First of all, he is not but even if he was, learning on the fly is far less of an evil than someone with tremendous amount of looting, robbing, killing, and evil-doings experience.
I like Romney but does he know who his party leaders were in the last 8 years? Does he know our VP was and does he know who our 1st of the two secretary of Defense was? Come on Mitt, with all due respect, think of yourself as an American before making partisan statements like these.......
You are better than that. Well wishes.
This greasehead is playing politics to gain popularity to become the next GOP candidate. Does he forget the fact that running a successful business is for pure profit to get richer but running a successful government is much more than getting richer.
Well, Romney presented his case without throwing a single buzz word. Imagine beign able to present your thoughts without calling folks names, distorting the truth or playing the blame game. This week at least, Mitt you are alright with me.
Sure, what else do you think Mitt Romney is going to say. Since him being a front runner, except him to come on shows a lot representing the Repubs.
Mitt Romney is never going to say, "I hope Obama brings this country out of the ditch the republicans put it in!"
The AIG bonus was put in by the Republicans. It is just that Tim Geihtner has to extricate the Govt. out of it, which he failed.
Funny that they are running around pointing the finger at the Dems. The Republicans created the problem.
Here's a guy that knows what he is talking about. how perfect would romney be right now during these tough economic times!
It is important for President Obama to continue to reach as many as possible and explain with apples and oranges what is going on. Being on Leno accomplished that. Unfortunately it will get lost on the sound bite of the day.....
Obama thinks he is cool but must be getting hot under the pressure.He is not ready for this job as appointments and decisions have dictated.He better base his career on 4 years of more corrupt appointments and lack of care for american people .Cares more for corporations just like Bush.THERE IS NOOOOOOOOOO CHANGE AT ALL UNDER THIS ADMINISTRATION.
I can't believe the sheep fell for the "change we can believe in" and now look at the train wreck washinton has become!
I could never have voted for Romney as President, but his remarks are on target here. Perhaps he would've been a better driver for the bus which Bush took to the precipice and Obama seems set on driving off the economic cliff.
Well put, Future President Romney.
I hear folks say we need a businessman like Romney to run the country. That's all we need is another businessman thinking only of himself and his wealthy friends! I think we have seen what these people can do by running businesses in the ground and skimming off their bonuses. If we're that stupid, why don't we just put Wall Street people in charge of the country.
At least Obama isn't on vacation at his "ranch" and I can guarantee he will be on vacation less than the last Prez – but that won't be hard!
Of course, Obama is "learning on the fly". His previous experience as a community organizer and freshman senator did not prepare him for this role. He did not even have security clearance as a senator to allow him to know the depth of the country's issues. Pray for the man, the country and please get off late night tv!
Hey Repubs – make up your mind – is Obama doing too much or not enough – what a bunch of confused partisans!
We have a president who is truly trying to connect to the American people and ease their fears through any medium possible. He will reach a lot of people through the late shows. It wasn't as if he went on the show doing slapstick. He did a fantastic job and it is so refreshing to have a president that is so articulate and has such a wonderful sense-of-humor. His intelligence comes shining through. With only 60 days under his belt, he is doing his utmost to make a difference in the US. And yet, it is obvious that his family means the world to him. My best wishes and deepest respect to you and your family, Mr. President.
Double standard Mitt Romney is on a talk show (Larry King) talking about President Obama being on a talk show. That is something to think about.
You bet he's "learning to fly". What scares me the most is his landing!
Shut up Romney! Youcouldn't beat McCaine. So, how are you going to beat the many problems we face today.
I am tired of these Republicans. All Talk and no sloutions.
Just Bull__ blowing up folks A--.
Romney is a twit! and so is mega millions friends.
Is he wearing his magic undies?
Diana- How can you say he did a "fantastic" job...he foolishly made a gross comment in regards to special olympics...if thats your idea of fantastic, then maybe a guy who becomes an idiot when he doesn't have his teleprompter is what you want...good luck with that
Oh i didn't know Mitt had past presidential experience. What number was he?
Gov. Flip-Flop would be a disaster as President. He is the darling of Big Business...we don't need his mentality running things.
As to those who are so quick to criticize Obama's handling of this REPUBLICAN made crisis...what are you going to do when this administration brings the economy out of recession, ends the war in Iraq, raises America's standing in the world as a leader? That's right, you will ultimately become weak, small, irrelevant voices of a backward vision.
All presidents learn on the fly. Romney would be learning on the fly. What an incredibly disingenuous comment.
And yeah, we need Romney's "business experience" like we need a whole in the head. He's the kind of sleazy used car salesman writ large who got us into this mess.
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
And I prefer to see Mitt Romney on the Larry King show rather than in the White House, so I guess Mitt and I both have opinions.
Thank Goodness the Republicans have finally, after 8 long years of diligently looking for fiscal responsibility, found it. It must have been **so** hard looking for it, with George being in charge. But now, they have seen the light.
That's just what we need now...another hypocrite leading the country. When the Republicans **actually** practice what they preach, then I will believe them. Until then...I say to Mit Romney...give it a break!!!
Mitt, Mitt, Mitt....
I think you should take heed of what a spectacle Eric Cantor made of your party and himself on Morning Joe yesterday morning. This guy was a FOOL of all fools. And you wonder how this guy is the new up and coming "golden boy" of the GOP. Cantor clearly couldn't find his butt if you pointed it out to him!!!
Mika, Joe and Lawrece O'Donnel were shocked by Cantor's stupidity, they started laughing at the fact this guy was absolutely clueless and yet he continued to ramble on and on and NEVER once answer one questioned. I could not believe it.
Eric Cantor looked and sounded like a completed IDIOT on national TV. It's NO wonder here you are doing the very same thing. Republicans are such clowns, they continue to dig themselves deeper into "zombie-ville"
Guess he's mad he didn't get invited. He would have jumped at the chance.
All the good works of Obama cannot make sense for someone like Romney.
Some people will not be satisfied with President Obama even if he allowed tax payers a break in paying taxes for 6 months. He was put in the position to fix the mess that the previous administration created. Many of those who are complaining will benefit from the programs and packages that he and his administration have created. Yes, mistakes will be made along the way. President Bush made many many many mistakes, but did we call for impeachment? If ever a president should have been impeached, it's him. If you were able to put up with a president who claimed that he did not know that we were in a recession untill he left office (he was on the inside looking out), them give President Obama a chance. Instead of waiting for him to say the wrong thing, pray and ask God to give him the wisdom that is needed to run this country and get us back on track.
Double-standard?!?! Are you kidding me?? One man is the current sitting President of the United States, the other is not. Talk about apples and oranges. Keep criticizing Romney, he'll be your Commander in Chief soon enough.
Steve March 20th, 2009 10:03 am ET
All presidents learn on the fly. Romney would be learning on the fly. What an incredibly disingenuous comment.
And just where is the "President School" located–you know, the one that candidates go to and learn "how to be President"–the one that all the former Presidents and their rivals attended so they didn't need to learn "on the job/fly".
President Obama appearing on the Tonight Show was appropriate and necessary. He used the opportunity to address his most important auudience: the "average" American. If Mr. Romney was giving attention to the show, he would notice that a range of issues regarding the economy were addressed. It was a part of the President's ongoing strategy to clean up the profound mess created by greedy corporations and banks and politicians. We should all be grateful for a President who is willing and able to multi-task while bringing a real sense of humanity to the political arena.
Romney has never ever said anything good or close to positive about Obama. He does not like the guy. Maybe it's because Obama is not rich or apart of the elite club of rich guys like Romney and McCain. McCain showed disdain for him throughout the campany and Romney is always, always putting him down.
I guess he would line up with warren buffet who just invested billions of dollars in the electric car in communist china he seems to line up with anybody who ships jobs overseas that how he made his millions
Nelson, how is this a double standard???????? Obama is the President....he has NO BUSINESS being on a late nite entertainment show. Romney, last i checked, is a private citizen.
I guess Pauline does not know about the millions of dollars O'bama made last year from his two books. But, I have no problem with it...I think it's great. That's what this country is all about. I just want to remind everyone that he is a lawyer, from Chicago and his lips move all the time. Keep it real!
After all of these years, it's so refreshing to see Republicans squirm. The fact that they are so uncomfortable is a good sign that things are finally going in the right direction–progress, not the ideological idiocracy that did so much damage to our country and the world. Let's hope that in 2016, the pendulum doesn't swing back into the dark ages again.
@ "matt".......... are YOU perfect??? You have never uttered a word that you have regretted??? Never made a "retard" joke???
You, far-right-folks will find fault for everything Obama does....... even ........ breathing!
Let's talk about the GOP president and all the gaffes...... shall we???
A stupid comment by Obama. Chalk up 1 or him. He only has about 999 more until he catches the village idiot from Midland Texas......
Funny comment Mr.Romney. Atleast, Obama is learning on the fly. YOU and your Republican colleagues have been in the Senate and House for many years and haven't learnt anything.........
This is why Romney and all of those others' are sitting on the sidelines critizing Obama , give me a break , if he made all the best decisions in the world you would have some who do nothing but complain, he has done more than any nother president in a short time , if you want to complain, then be thesmarter than Obama , obiviously most of you are not ( republicans ) because he has beaten you hands down at everyturn , and what do you guys do ,complain , complain complain , get up off the sidelines and give our president some help instead of trying to derail him at every turn .
Perhaps President Obama is learning to fly, and I am sure he will soar.....whereas you, Mitt Romney, have already crashed and burned.
Pure loser comments from Romney
President Obama cannot spend 24 hrs cleaning up Bush's mess…..he has a life too!
President Obama has done more in 59 days than Bush n Reagan did in 16 yrs. The failed policies of free market republicanism have created this disaster and now all the GOP big boys are out in force putting the stomp on President Obama's back because it's politically expedient for them at the moment. Hey Mom of a soldier, where do you get your information from? Obama had top security clearance as a Senator because he was on several foreign relations committees. If I were President Obama, I'd rethink some of those Clinton adm left overs. I just don't trust them along with some of the Dems in congress. I remember what Reid and Pelosi said..They don't work for the President..They work for themselves..Time for hardball Mr President.
Obama may be learning on the fly, but at least he has the plane headed in the right direction. All the experience in the world will be of no avail if you direction you are taking the country is wrong.
What a smarmy comment! I don't think Mitt is in any postion to criticize the president.
Every President learns on the fly, and thats because they've never been the president of the US before either!!!!!!!!!! Nobody but the last 43 Presidents (and i'm refering to the number of administrations becasue I know there have been duplicates) can really be critical of another president. Everyone else doesn't know what really goes on behind the oval office.
The only thing Repulsicans know about flies is how to attract them to their piles of BS!
Perhaps President Obama is learning to fly, but I am sure he will soar....whereas you, Mitt Romney, have crashed and burned.
You're looking at our next President, when Obama loses his re-election bid because he's more "show" than "go". Romney knows the economy and will be a much better President.
maybe mitt can give obama tips on the best way to tie a dog to the roof of a car.
poor mittens – beaten out my mccain for the top gop spot and by caribou barbie for the #2.
Mitt who?
Yes it makes perfect sense, the big O just shackled my and your kids with a crushing burden of debt which will take their entire lives to pay off..the sole purpose of which is to buy the Dem's power. So going on the Tonight show is the perfect venue to show your arrogance and contempt for the people you just betrayed. Once he pushes thru his universal Health Care and starts making veterans pay for their own health treatment he'll probably get his own prime time special.
Romney, on the other hand, is a fly–a fly on the wall. There isn't much a fly can do except sit there and, well, in this case, be critical. Lame.
Well, the republicans are working full time to try and destroy our country and our President. Am so sick of their doing nothing but point fingers, distort and pander in front of the cameras when they have no viable plans to get us out of the crisises they created.
They do not give the American people credit for the intelligence to see through their hypocrasy.
They continue to self destruct and could not happen to any more deserving politicians.
Oh C'mon, people! President Obama has only been in office two MONTHS! Give it a break, sit tight and see what the man can do to fix the mess the last idiot stuck us with. It's amost as if people believe Obama actually created this problem. There are no easy solutions here!
Raju-
Chris Dodd put in the language for the AIG bonuses. HE IS A DEMOCRAT!
I got new's for the one's that think Romney will be the next POTUS ,......KEEP DREAMING ,...........like I said before , Obama has a better way of thinking that Romney , Mcain , and Palin, so you guys better come up with a better plan , becasuse Obama will be POTUS FOR THE NEXT 8 years , and Romney will never be potus , that's a sure bet I'll take in Vegas
When Romney can openly critize that polygamous, no blacks need apply religion of his he will have something worth listening too. Until then he is just another millionaire wannabe who think he's entitled to be President.
Pauline: Obama is rich. Don't ever think otherwise. The man has a house worth more than $1.5 million and has received a ridiculous sum of money for his book sales.
All you Deamoncrats need to realize he is right! NObama has no leadership experience and it is showing. I hate to state the obvious but being a state and US senator for a while does not automatically make you a leader. It makes you a great arguer and teaches you how to pander to your party but it does NOT teach leadership.
His teleprompter has more leadership experience than he does!
I can't believe Republicans in particular are being so blind! President Obama is doing what is expected – going to the people! If our last President had talked to us more, shown some humanity and yes, done town hall meetings, visited on the Tonight show, spoke to us in human terms and let we the people take part in the conversation, perhaps his legacy would be other than what it is.
Keep talking to us President Obama! You're doing just fine!
Well Mr Romney I agree with one post on here the Republicans were in power for about 14 yrs and havent learned ANYTHING, Got the life beat out of them in 2 Elections and still havent Learned. Lay off the President Mitt! Tell your Party to Shape up or Ship out.
And Mitt should understand that the fact that America would rather have someone learn on the fly is testament to how the GOP has lost the trust of the American voter for decades to come. Think about it Mitt it speaks to your parties inabilty to govern efectively. We would rather have a rookie!
Seems to me that George Bush appeared on Deal or No Deal while he was a sitting President – you guys are just so jealous – its painful to watch.
Mitt Rommney: Learning on the fly
Dear Mitt,
We all know of your extraordinary achievement as a venture capitalist. You said that the Prez has never governed or run anything...He managed his election campaign...You, on the other hand, invested over $40m and could not overtake McCain... He selected Palin who was going to be his point person on energy and special needs education...Those two issues have nothing to do with the current economic crisis, no? Your party's base will not vote for you because of your religion..So much for diversity. I fell asleep while Larry talked to you and he devoted far more time to Natasha Richardson. I like you, Mitt but you have selected the wrong party...
What is incredibly amaizing to me is how many of the Obama haters on on this Ticker commenting on the Tonight Show gaffe. This is the Mitt Romney Ticker you morons.
Oh Well "The Fruits Never Fall Far From The Tree"
Hey Mitt, if you had been the one the people wanted you'd be President now. I guess you didn't have what the people wanted. Now suddenly you know more than anyone. What a bunch of Republican crap. Why don't you Republicans start working with instead of consistenly against? I think by the end of Obama's first term the amount of respect left for Repubs will fit into a thimble. A very small thimble.
Mitt Ronney has that same stupid smirk smile like George bush. I think he would be the same logga head has Bush. Can you imagine him running the Country. Plus he belongs to a racist organization regligion. Go away and leave Our very bright, articulate, educated,
President alone. President obama knows that in order to get American back on track, you need to tackle more than one falling
parts. Ronney and Bush and all the Republican run the country inhto the ground. Can someone ask Ronney what are the 3 things that make a country number 1? Healthcare, Education, Infrastructure. They don't know that. All you bright minds out there you think American can stand up to Cuba, yes a third World country in those 3 areas.? Just check it out. Mr. President is on the right track. He is brilliant America. Please give him a change to do his thing..............
i think the problem is that the republican party has tried to throw so many road blocks up in front of the Prez.. and none have worked .. that's the big problem they can not find away to bring him down so they nit pick each and everything he does like he should be a robot.. so Mit says Mr. Prez should only be focused on the economy...hmmm i would say that if former Prez was focus on the BiG companies and the deals that was being made instead of blinding us about a war that should not have been then maybe we would not be where we are .. so why was MiTt and the company not so focus on that when it was happening, maybe because you were getting rich right along with the rest of them
Why does the media keep dishing out old and useless stuff to the public,mitt is tired and should go home,he should not be seen let alone talking.Does he think learning stops at some point,No brother romney,learning never ends,its from cradle to the grave.I wonder what type of potus he would be if he had actualized his aim.Americans should note this comment from mitt,he doesnt want to learn again,even when you are in recession.Bush ruled texas for 8years,yet he messed up in WH.So much for GOP know it all.
