Both of their plans to raise revenue and decrease the national deficit have problems. Like a Rubik's Cube, when something moves up another thing moves down. Also, I am eager to see the difference between a townhall style debate and the previous debate.
Enjoy.
The discussion about China was a good one.
Haha.. I don't think so.
Romney got sonned.
He made a complete fool of himself when he got his facts totally wrong with the Libya terror exchange, and even had to be corrected on his little blunder by Candy Crowley (to the whole audience's applause).
Check the polls.. Obama won. Clear as day.
I could take either, Romney' or Obama's, side of the little Libyan terror incident.
However, let me remind you about the part that you omitted from my post....
China.
Why doesn't Obama ever bring up an initiative to deal with them? Does he think if he doesn't bring it up as a problem it will just go away? That didn't work with the debt.
However, I do think Obama learned something from the first debate because he looked much better last night.
China does not respond well to public threats. Other than accelerating a climate of open hostility I'm not sure how announcing an 'initiative' against China would help. It's a lot easier to talk tough on China without having to negotiate the reality of day to day Sino-US relations. Progress made with China in recent years has mostly come down to trade and diplomacy... shouting in public isn't going to help.
Last night, I'm response to Romney talking about bring manufacturing jobs back to the US from China with reguard to Candy's question about Apple. Obama said some jobs are gone/we cant bring back. I thought that was an interesting opinion. He then said he wants people in the US to have jobs developing Apps. I totally understand.
Here is my concern. Do you know what kind of Apps people are making? I know they are developing an App that takes food orders. For example at ballparks and resturants you can now order a hamburger or hotdog using a smart phone App. I think that eliminates jobs and is not a solution.
Must not care 100%.
