How much do we know about Mitt Romney?


How much do you really know about Mitt Romney?
Aside from scattered reports about his activities at Bain, obviously edited family stories and concessions by party affiliates, there is not a great deal to go on.  

I hear many Republicans state that Obama has a past shrouded in mystery, but a few easy checks and you realize that is due to a lack of research skills.  Shockingly enough, less information is openly available on Mitt Romney than Barack Obama.  Romney has led a very private life and it seems as though he wants to continue this trend into the White House.

This is not something to support, but abhor.  If you are going to lead 350 MILLION people, all of whom will look up to the President for an example to live by, you CANNOT be a private individual.  Your life must be open to scrutiny.  You must show the people that you have lived within the law, that you respect the rules of the United States and that you are of a sufficient moral character to speak for a nation as diverse as ours.

If you are a Republican and your support of Mitt Romney is mainly based on the fact that your family, friends, and/or co-workers support him, or you always vote Republican, you should not rest so easy, ignorant of the real man behind the campaign.  Obama is personable, and has opened up his life to cameras many times.  Romney always looks nervous or anxious to stop when interviewed.  Do you really want a man like this running things?

If you can tell me some facts about Mitt Romney, that show that he is qualified to run the GOVERNMENT, not a business, enlighten me.  If you can do this without saying anything negative Obama, I will have respect for you.  

To be fair, I am voting for Obama, but I will list my problems with him:
1. He dreams too big.
2. He needs to hear the voices of the conservatives as much as my own liberal voice.
3. He should only invest in a company that has a green technology that offers a "revolution," not every company that is "potentially profitable"
4. He needs to focus on the positives, not the negatives generated by the feuding parties.

Can you honestly name some faults in your candidate? If you cannot, ignorance prevails.
