"Somebody gave me an education. I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. Michelle wasn't. But somebody gave us a chance," Obama said in a speech at Lorain County Community College in Elyria, Ohio. "Right now we have two competing visions of our future, and the choice could not be clearer," said the president. "Should we settle for an economy where a few people do really well and then a growing number are struggling to get by?"

More class warfare bullshit. Yeah, the choice is clear, socialism or free market capitalism.

But he has one now.

Ah yes... he only attended an exclusive private prep school in Hawaii, and 2 Ivy League schools.

Sure... he can totaly relate to working American's... THE MAN HASN'T HELD A PRIVATE SECTOR JOB IN HIS LIFE!!!

Oh sure, there was a single, very brief stint in a private-sector consulting house in NY - but he characterized that as "working behind enemy lines" in his first book, so we can't really count that.

Let's face it, Romney is LIGHTYEARS ahead of Obama in being able to connect with working Americans in the private sector!

Obama is so full of you know what, it's not even funny. Don't forget Biden, he is a cheapskate when it comes to donating to charity, he has donated almost nothing.

This should not be a question about wealth since the amount of money in an account has no bearing on a person's ability to be the president.
Obama AND Romney are both elitists but it is the political elitism that is the problem.

The inability to fix issues without using politics is disturbing.
Romney has millions of dollars and is clueless on fixing the country.
Obama is wealthy and is clueless on fixing the country.
I am scrounging for quarters in a sofa and I can fix the country in 3 easy steps...without using politics.

Romney isn't clueless, he actually knows how business works and how the private sector works and Obama doesn't have a clue because he's never had a private sector job in his life.
