Romney promises better future for US

Mitt Romney has promised America jobs if he wins the White House.

Accepting the Republican Party's presidential nomination, Mr Romney made a back-to-basics speech, focusing on family, employment, and a strong military - and he enlisted the help of Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood.

 

 

Although the scripted interview with an imaginary Barack Obama was missing a few lines, luckily the crowd knew its cue when the “go ahead, make my day” line came up.

And that day would be if Romney became president.

Romney accepted the nomination with a speech that harkened back to the US' heyday as a superpower.

“That utter confidence that when the world needs someone to do the really big stuff, you need an American,” said Romney.

It was back-to-basics - job promises, the institution of marriage, a strong military and importantly for Romney - a mormon - religious freedom.

Romney promised a better future, not just for the US but the world. The question now is - will the US bless him with the White House come November?

HAMISH, sorry but Rommey I don't trust, I followed Obama in action since he was elected as the President of America or I followed the history of his upbringing, he offers hope and I think things would have been a lot worse if Rommey or Bush were in charge.. Guantanamo has many terrorist so its impossible for Obama to closed the place down.. Hope the above helps HAMISH..

@Jan, Do you actually look at the politics or just watch the media? Obama has carried on all of Bushs policies and ordered well over 250 attacks in nations the USA is not at war with, they torture un-convicted suspects, hell he didnt even close Guantanamo. Google the policies he carried on, he is just as bad if not worse than Bush. But he is brown and a very good speaker.

The guy is basically more of Bush but worse and we all know what Bush managed to do to the country in two terms.

Rommey has no chance in hell with or without his words of wisdom, he can only slow things down just like the President before Obama.. Obama did a swell job for the world environment and his country can only grow stronger.. Obama has been through those dark holes where Rommey hasn't a chance in hell.. The world is counting on Obama and not Rommey.. I agreed with MR HOLMES THE PEARL GINGER CAT comment.. Rommey is too weak.. rethink..
