“Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
- Thomas Jefferson.
Action has delineated and defined Mitt Romney. Having dual degrees in law and in business, and having a Father who wielded legal coercive power, Romney chose to enter Private Equity, where only reason and persuasion can be used. This evinces that Romney is not a power-luster, and that he is challenged by wealth creation employing skills, innovation, and uncoerced trade.
He financed a start-up, Staples, which now employs around a hundred thousand. Other financiers scoffed at the idea of Staples, but Romney identified with the virtue of saving on paperclips. He financed Bright Horizons, which evinces his concern for the innocents and for parents who want to work.
"In 1998, after 38 years of ownership, Domino’s Pizza founder Tom Monaghan announced his retirement and sold 93 percent of the company to Bain Capital for about $1 billion. At the time, Domino’s had 1000 stores, and employed about 16,000 people." Today, Domino’s has 45,000 employees.
Romney performed the business of capitalism for 25 years. After which, he served his country in other ways. At the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, he inherited a $370 million deficit. He left behind a $100 million surplus, contributing $1 million of his own money, & drawing no salary for 3 years. As governor with an 85% Democratic legislature, drawing $1 annual salary for 4 years, Romney cut taxes 19 times, turning a $3B deficit into a $2B surplus.

3/19/2012 - "The National Debt has now increased more during President Obama's three years and two months in office than it did during 8 years of the George W. Bush presidency. The debt rose $4.899 trillion during the two terms of the Bush presidency. It has now gone up $4.939 trillion since President Obama took office."

"Under Romney, unemployment decreased to 4.7 percent from 5.6 percent. The number of jobs — based on the number of those employed — increased by nearly 50,000. That’s more than Romney’s predecessor (Republican Jane Swift, who was governor from April 2001 to January 2003) or successor (Democrat Deval Patrick) can claim; under Swift, Massachussetts lost about 60,000 jobs and under Patrick, who became governor in 2007, the state has lost about 50,000 jobs.
Furthermore, the Romney campaign says that “between January 2003 and December 2006, Massachusetts was one of seventeen states to accelerate its job growth every year (creating more jobs each year than were created the year before), and one of only two states — Illinois being the other — to accelerate its job growth by at least 20,000 jobs each year. Massachusetts was one of the top ten most-improved states (seventh overall) in terms of job creation, going from 49th in the nation in the first year of the Romney Administration to 36th in the nation in the last year.”"

Obama kicks off his “official” re-election campaign on the birthday of Karl Marx, the author of The Communist Manifesto. Obama uses the slogan, "Forward!", the english translation of "Vorwärts!", a communist newspaper that Karl Marx wrote for.

This is my favorite Romney photo. I behold a real-life Francisco d'Anconia. It takes one who thinks and labors, who values reason and rights, to appreciate money and its root. It takes extraordinary mettle and self-esteem to exhibit pride in having earned money.

As a young man, he chose a noble profession, Private Equity, which finances start-ups or struggling companies, where only reason and persuasion can be used. Frugal and proficient, he was extraordinarily successful. Romney is a serial deficit eradicator and surplus creator.
