Presidential candidates reduce a 4-year-old to tears
Here’s the background on the tears from 9News in Colorado:
A 4-year-old Fort Collins girl expressed her frustration over the seemingly never-ending presidential campaign.
9NEWS viewer Elizabeth Evans said she and her daughter, Abigael, were listening to NPR on a trip to the grocery store Tuesday when she started tearing up.
The mother asked Abigael why she was crying and she responded, “I’m tired of Bronco Bamma and Mitt Romney.”
NPR has apologized.

Jim, we all really want to cry!
However, with the new first name of “Bronco”, the President should do well in Colorado.

This child is sick and tired of mama’s rant and raves over the election. Children this age do not give importance to this topic without an adult’s involvement.
Child services should take this child from her mother…Mother has tortured the child with her discussions and frustration with the election process. Poor kid is miserably involved in adult conversations.
She is tired…tired of her mother’s neurotic addiction to the campaigning. TURN the TV…and NPR off Have some quality time with your child…and that means in a child’s world …not discussing adult topics with a child.

Clinton told us all that when Obama faced a questioner on one of his campaign stops, Clinton thought Obama was going to cry. And Obama has been complaining that Romney hurt his feelings.. So don’t be too hard on your 4 year old ’cause even big boys cry.

She’s in Colorado, which is considered a swing state as well, so this little girl is being bombarded with campaign ads from every source of media all day long. One of the things that makes me glad I’m in Ga. right now is that we are hardly seeing any of this barrage because we are a dedicated red state. On the other hand, I am stuck in a dedicated red state with a bunch of morons, so it evens out.

If Barack Obama is your idea of a real leader then you are a fool…because he is their god. If he wasn’t dark skinned, he’d never stand a chance at re-election and all the cars I see with people who suddenly became politically involved 4 years ago would still have decal free bumpers and windows. FACT. If he was white he’d have a 10% approval rating as he deserves.

The Repubs…always seeing things that are not as though they were.
I’m tired of hearing all the racists say “it’s not his skin color, I think he’s a likable guy! BS!! If we’ve learned nothing more from this entire process, we’ve definitely learned that rascism is alive and well in America. I’m not upset about it, I never doubted it. I just wish people would be who they are and quit all this MASKING. This process just gives those who are racist an opportunity to show their “true colors” and mask it behind this election.
Mitt Romney has not one person of color on his senior staff. As of the ones that were at the RNC, mere TOKENS.

what economic indicator are you going by to say Obama is a failed president? reducing the unemployment? saving the auto industry? helping to refinance millions with harp reform? getting after those who cheated trillions from us? ……
ohh you just don’t like him cause he is black… just say that… that is what Obama has done more than anything he has shown a lot of people to be the racist people they truly are.

Only a moron would fall for the same old liberal crap…..Romney’s War on Women…..Only a racist would vote for Romney…these are meant for the dumb masses. Guess what, you fell for it.

@masters degree. Now I understand. Your definition of creating jobs is government jobs. A president that has actual job experience and real world business experience understands (unlike you) that a president can ever create enough government jobs. He can cut taxes on small business and cut the red tape so small business can create more jobs. That is the problem with Obama, he thinks the answer to everything is GOVERNMENT.

g, what “Jobs mess”? There are 3.2 million jobs going begging. Even in the manufacturing sector the number of jobs available has risen to 230,000 today from 98,000 in 2009, the “Financial Times” reports. By the same token, a recent study by the employment agency Manpower found that 52 percent of American companies said they are experiencing difficulty finding employees qualified enough to fill mission-critical positions, We have an education/training problem, just like the President says. Regrettably, 80 percent of the unemployed lack college, and this is the 21st Century.

No I do not believe the definition of creating jobs is government jobs.. that simply is not true…
And you are prescribing something to MITT that he did not say! He said that it is NOT the role of the Federal Government to create jobs.. meaning he does not understand the role of the Federal government…
which i agree with you is to create the environment to make businesses flourish… President Obama not only has experience he has success at turning our country around.. I am moving FORWARD

WHY?
(CNN) – Conservative writer and activist Dinesh D’Souza, who attracted wide attention with his recent anti-Obama film “2016: Obama’s America,” resigned as president of a Christian college in New York after questions were raised about his marriage.
His departure appeared to be set in motion by an article on the website of the evangelical magazine World that accused D’Souza, who is married, of sharing a hotel room with a woman whom he allegedly referred to as his “fiancé” at a Christian conference.
WHY WOULD ANYONE BELIEVE THIS MOVIE?
The filmmaker is a LYING HYPOCRITE just like YOU AND ROMNEY.

I am convinced that some Americans support Mitt Romney because he appeals to their ego and ignorance…Similar to the election of our governor Nathan Deal, who has a long track record of mismanagement and corruption-we as a state elected him anyway. He’s still doing the same thing in office as he did prior to being our gorvernor, and people in this state are simply happy that a Republican is in place. If Americans choose to vote Mittens into office we will get exactly what we deserve. All I can say is God Bless America and I hope for the best.

….Born and raised in Ga.

Now Ga and most other southern states are Red states. I’m an Independent, but have voted Repub for quite a while now and probably will continue that trend for the foreseeable future…..The reason; I deplore an ever increasing big govt meddling in my life.

They both know that if they told you the truth you wouldn’t vote for them. So after the election when economic hell breaks loose you can blame yourself for voting for what you want to hear instead of the truth. LOL

The man spent the first 2 years in office with control of both houses of congress and accomplished nothing…….not the mark of a skilled politian…….but he has the backing of “glitzy” Hollywood stars and “idiot” types like Michael Moore and a trashy “white girl” comedian who likens voting for OBama to losing her virginity. If you think he’s the “chosen one”, vote for him. I sincerely hope we’re not sadly disappointed 4 yr from now.

Been gone for hours? Maybe because I have a life outside of AJC blogs???? Sorry to dissapoint. Truth is I am not hearing any solid facts on why Romney is SO BAD….more fear tactics and demagoguery from the left about Obama. I think it’s supremely funny how everyone talks about the economy getting better. I hate to tell you this, but the economy was in the toilet….only place it could go was to get better. Too bad it took a whole 4 years to slightly move in a better direction. The promises Obama made have not come to fruition that he said would in his FIRST term. I hold a man to his word and he has not lived up to them. MASTERS degree is obviously overcompensating for something lol…..You can parade around all you want about Obama and his so called “great turnarounds”, but the truth is as an INDEPENDENT voter I am not impressed at all. You can blame or call repubs names on here or tout DEMS on here….bottom line is Obama needs to convince people such as myself and I’m not happy with what has occurred in the past 4 years. It’s people like me that will decide the election. I know I know that scares the hell out of you and I’m a racist….truth is I’ve taken off the idealogue glasses and am willing to give another MAN a chance regardless of party affiliation. Party doesn’t matter to me. Fixing the country does. Obama is offering promises he clearly CAN’T keep….I know that based on the failed promises of the 1st term. You want to say Romney will do this and that….He hasn’t even had the chance of governing the country yet so how do you even know? I know what Obama has done. It’s been painfully obvious living in it for 4 years.

I think we all have got to take a look at what motivates us to go against one candidate or the other. I have really made an honest effort to search my soul and make sure I’m voting for the right reasons. I did not vote for Mr. Obama in 2008, but when he was elected he became my president too and I gave him my respect. As I learned more, and saw things that scared me about his administration, I began to worry about my children and grand children’s future. I don’t know whether Mr. Romney will do a better job or not, but he’s all I have left to vote for now, since I was a Herman Cain supporter before he dropped out…..If voting against someone because I’m tire of lies and too many secret deals with other countries “wait until after the election Mr. Puten and I’ll be able to do more ” then I guess I am by your standards, but my real friends, who know my heart and my record don’t feel that I am ! God bless America and the true Americans who want freedom for all, and a renewed loyalty to the United States of America and its great people.

But if you have a couple of millions sitting in the bank,I can understand your stance on Mitt.By the way I don’t sit on my lazy ass,I work hard for my family.I was working hard before PRESIDENT Obama was elected,and will be doing the same thing when he is reelected.I will be voting for today.By the way,Georgia will not be a red state for long.So all of you racist rednecks better figure out a way to live on the moon.

@ Master’s Degree – Is your masters in idiocracy?
Bottom line is this. In the past 3.5 years, Obama has been able to to this…
1) He amassed 6 Trillion more debt in less than HALF of the time that GWB took to get to 5 Trillion.
Said Obamacare would cost around $780B, but now it’s estimated to be nearly $2 TRILLION.
2) US Economic freedom index went from 3rd in the world to 18th in three years
3) Highest corporate taxes in the WORLD which has led to companies moving jobs overseas or deciding NOT to relocate here.
4) Highest sustained period very low GNP growth EVER.
5) Longest sustained period of high unemployment since the great depression.
6) TRILLIONS of taxpayer’s money spent on “Green Energy” companies that have since gone bankrupt.
7) Minimized our military to its smallest and weakest point since before WWI.
9) Obama care is causing companies to hoard cash and NOT HIRE anyone
10) Bowed to Saudi Kings and Princes and spoke badly about the United States on Foreign soil.
11) Obama did NOT get Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden was found through plans that were implemented when Bush was President. Obummer was just fortunate to be in office when they finally found him. Interesting that he takes all the credit when it’s something good, yet plays the Blame game when it doesn’t look to be in his favor. Case in point – - -#12
12) Lied to the American public about the attack on Bengazi because it would have looked bad for his campaign to have a terrorist attack on his watch. He’s STILL covering it up. It’s been a month and a half and their still “Investigating” it. Bull Crap.
13) Least not forget that the United State’s credit was downgraded for the first time in history.
Obama is taking this country to hell in a hand basket. He has accomplished NOTHING of worth that has made this country better than we were 4 years ago. His policies and socialistic views have proven to be failures not just here, but in other places around the world. His system Just Doesn’t Work! He’s been a disaster and needs to go.
Romney has proven himself time and time again in business that he can be a success. He brought the Olympics in Salt Lake out of bankruptcy and made them a success, he brought Mass out of a massive deficit, billions in debt and balanced their budget, all WITHOUT RAISING TAXES. he can do the same for the country. Im telling you that something needs to be done and done NOW or this country is going to be like Greece. BTW, I need to add to my list up there that the US Credit rating dropped below AAA for the first time in history too. All on Obama’s watch. Our current path is the path of doom. Think about your children. Your children’s children in the future. Obama can NOT and will NOT get us out of this mess, but I believe that Mit Romney can get us on the right path.

The first bill President Obama signed was the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, to help women fight back when they don’t get equal pay for equal work.
His Recovery Act supported millions of jobs and helped to stave off a second Great Depression.
He pushed for and won middle-class tax cuts that benefitted every American worker, and saved the typical family $3,600 in taxes over the last four years.
President Obama rescued the auto industry, and now GM and Chrysler are healthier than they’ve ever been. The American auto industry has added nearly a quarter of a million jobs since June 2009 — and they most likely wouldn’t exist right now without President Obama’s leadership.
He doubled funding for Pell Grants, helping to make college more affordable for nearly 10 million families.
His student loan reform ended billions in subsidies to banks serving as middlemen and reinvested those savings directly into students.
The President established the American Opportunity Tax Credit, worth up to $10,000 over four years of college.
His Race to the Top Initiative helped spur nearly every state to raise academic standards.
His tax cuts, social-welfare programs, and economic policies lifted nearly 7 million Americans above the federal poverty line in 2010.
President Obama has signed 18 tax cuts for small businesses since taking office.

CONTINUED——-
We’ve seen 5.2 million new private-sector jobs over the last 31 months.
The unemployment rate is at the lowest level since President Obama took office.
Health care reform — passed after decades of failed attempts by every previous President — provides affordable health coverage to every American and will lower premiums by an average of $2,000 per family by 2019.
Obamacare expanded access to lifesaving preventive care such as cancer screenings and immunizations with no out-of-pocket costs for 54 million Americans.
Obamacare ends insurance discrimination against the 129 million Americans with pre-existing conditions.
Because of Obamacare, over 3 million more young adults have health insurance today than would if the new law hadn’t passed.
The parents of over 17 million children with pre-existing conditions no longer have to worry that their children will be denied coverage.
President Obama has ordered the overhaul of federal government regulations to make them smarter, practical, and more efficient. Just a fraction of these commonsense initiatives will help save businesses $10 billion in the next five years alone.
His historic investments in clean energy have helped more than double the amount of electricity we obtain from wind and solar sources and helped increase biofuel production to its highest level in history.

President Obama is doubling fuel efficiency standards, which will save drivers more than $8,000 at the gas pump, not to mention lessen the impact of automobiles on our environment.
President Obama has taken unprecedented action to address climate change, reaching historic international agreements to curb carbon emissions, and taking action here at home to reduce carbon pollution from our vehicles and promote clean energy production.
He has taken historic action to protect our environment — signing one of the largest expansions of protected wilderness in a generation and putting in place standards to reduce toxic air pollution that will save thousands of lives.
President Obama fought for and won landmark Wall Street reform that reins in the abuses that led to the financial crisis and ends the era of taxpayer bailouts and “too big to fail.”
Wall Street reform created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the nation’s first federal agency focused solely on consumer financial protection — and the Bureau is already protecting families from unfair and abusive financial practices from Wall Street banks and shadowy corners of the financial industry.
As part of President Obama’s commitment to transparency, the White House has posted its visitor records online for the first time ever.
President Obama’s all-of-the-above approach to energy has helped cut the United States’ dependence on foreign oil to its lowest level in 20 years.
President Obama responsibly ended the war in Iraq.

AND FINALLY……
He announced a plan to end the war in Afghanistan and transition security responsibility to the Afghan people.
President Obama sent the largest security assistance package to Israel in history and funded the Iron Dome system, which is protecting Israeli homes and schools from rocket attacks.
President Obama rallied the international community to implement the toughest sanctions on Iran in history.
Through the President’s historic increases in Veterans Affairs funding, he has expanded and improved healthcare and job training access for our returning veterans.
President Obama negotiated the New START Treaty with Russia to reduce the number of nuclear weapons in both countries. At the same time, he also secured commitments from dozens of other countries to lock down nuclear materials.
His administration naturalized 11,146 military service members as U.S. citizens in 2010; more than in any year since 1955.
President Obama set a bold new plan for the future of NASA space exploration, using the skill and ability of the private sector for short trips to the International Space Station, while building a new vehicle for exploration of distant space, and doing everything in his power to support the economy on Florida’s Space Coast.
President Obama recognizes that tourism is one of America’s largest economic engines; he’s worked to encourage international visitors to come here, maintaining our security while keeping millions of Americans in good, paying jobs.
He has affirmed his personal support of marriage equality, directed the Justice Department to stop defending DOMA in federal courts, and took the practical and compassionate step of extending hospital visitation rights to same-sex partners.
He fought for and won the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, allowing gay and lesbian members of the military to serve openly for the first time in history.
When Congress failed to fix our broken immigration system, his administration did everything in its power to improve it, streamlining the legal immigration process and announcing a policy that lifts the shadow of deportation from hard working young immigrants brought to the U.S. as children.
Oh, and he gave the order to send troops in after Osama Bin Laden — and has decimated al-Qaeda’s senior leadership.
WHEW!!!!! THAT’S A LOT OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOLKS…….. REMEMBER…. THE ECONOMY WAS ALREAY IN SHAMBLES….. U GOT TO SEE THIS.

@Mitt Romney would reduce… – You need help. Forget the ads. Forget the political debates. Look at numbers in the past four years. Unemployment has risen not dropped. Gas prices has risen not fallen. Medical care has and will get worse under ObamaCare. More people under food stamps and welfare then ever before. Wake up and smell the coffee! Look at the numbers

The Romney camp’s successive and fallacious rhetoric about the US auto industry selling-out to China is enough to seal my vote against the guy. Sad too, because I actually think he wouldn’t do a bad job as President. I just don’t think he’s the right guy, right now. As an avowed Mormon, I would have expected him to go to lengths to avoid bearing false witness.

I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t read any politics in this and finds this hilarious. A four year old saying Bronco Bamma? Hilarious. Sick of election talk? Heck, me, too, baby, me, too. I’m sick of it. I can’t wait to vote, get the results, and shut this mess down. Of course then we’ll have to hear the analysis and the poor baby will cry even more.

We all feel her pain….. It should be illegal to campaign more than 60 days before an election. Obozo has never done his job because he has been campaigning for the last 4 years…

Pathetic….but thats what this race has come down to. An incumbent who has no ideas, and won 4 years ago because we hoped he would do better….now has to resort to get people to lose hope. Lets pray we kick his azz out.

I voted early today and cast my vote for the one and only logical choice. The one that actually has a record of getting things done. Mit Romney
