"Promotion open only to U.S. citizens, or lawful permanent U.S. residents who are legal residents of 50 United States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and 18 or older (or age of majority under applicable law)."
Does that cover you if you claim to have been born in Hawaii???

Is this different than the 50K plate dinners?
It's a publicity stunt... maybe he'll try and alienate 47% of the population....

Come on now.. you are better than that.
Out of the 47% what % pay payroll tax, meaning they back sh*t.... (whats the cut off, like $26,000 for a married couple?) and how many are true freeloaders...
Federal income tax is probably the only actual progressive tax... |

I don't see fault on either side...
The economy has tanked slowly for decades, largely due to the lack of middle class, blue collar manufacturing jobs.
Do you really believe there are that many people that want to be that poor, or don't try just to not pay federal income tax.
the number I heard was that 2/3 of that 47% pays payroll tax, meaning they work. Some big % are elderly, military etc... so how many really are abusing the system, expecting Obama to save the day.... not nearly as many as Mitt wants everyone to think! |

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
