| Mitt Romney @ NAACP Convention |
A
skeptical NAACP crowd left Mitt Romney scrambling for more lies to tell after he
was booed on Wednesday morning at the NAACP annual meeting. Romney insisted Wednesday
that he'd do more for African-Americans than President Barack Obama, the
nation's first black president and his first priority would be to repeal Obama
care.
"If you want a president who will make things better in the African-American community, you are looking at him," Romney told the group's annual convention. Pausing as some in the crowd heckled, he added, "You take a look!"
Do you really expect us to believe that Mitt Romney? Your actions, policy, and previous record show for itself of what type of politician you are. It’s clear that Mitt Romney is not a leader but a follower.
There
is nothing that you or the Republican Party has done or will do to help the African
American community and families. Many of African American families are still
living among poverty, have the highest unemployment rate and less education
resources. Mitt Romney what you can do is open that wallet of your overseas and
create jobs for the American American families and citizens of this country
today. Why are you sitting on it, if you
are a job creator, why not create jobs today?
What
African Americans do know is, that the Republican policies has destroy our
community and has taken us back.
Four
months before the election, Romney's appearance at the NAACP convention was a
direct, aggressive appeal for support from across the political spectrum in
what polls show is a close contest. Romney doesn't expect to win a majority of
black voters - 95 percent backed Obama in 2008 - but he's trying to show
independent and swing voters that he's willing to reach out to diverse
audiences, while demonstrating that his campaign and the Republican Party he
leads are inclusive.
"If
you understood who I truly am in my heart, and if it were possible to fully
communicate what I believe is in the real, enduring best interest of
African-American families, you would vote for me for president," Romney
said to murmuring from the crowd.
Romney
added: "I want you to know that if I did not believe that my policies and
my leadership would help families of color - and families of any color - more
than the policies and leadership of President Obama, I would not be running for
president."
Yes
Mitt Romney we understand who you really are, you are a politician that is out
to protect the 2% of Americans, Big Corporations, Insurance Companies, and
renew those trillions of dollars in tax cuts for the rich.
When
we look at you, we ask the question what have you really did for us African Americans?
Mitt seriously can you answer that question.
Romney
worked to connect with the crowd with religious references, noting the hymns
that were played before he was introduced and telling the group that his father
was "a man of faith who knew that every person was a child of God."
Mitt Romney a man that is running for the nation highest office, left the NAACP meeting without mentioning the Voter ID laws that has been passed recently by his party throughout many states, that will disenfranchise thousands and maybe at least a millions African American and Hispanic voters this fall.

Romney
expressed support for such laws during a late April visit to Pennsylvania,
which now has one of the toughest voter identification statutes in the nation.
"We ought to have voter identification so we know whose voting and we have
a record of that," Romney said then..It just another sign of dirty
politics by Mitt Romney and his GOP party.
Mitt
Romney we has African Americans may look like a fool, but we are a long ways
from being one.
