2012 Presidential Candidates - my opinion

Hey there readers :)
I'm in a very good mood right now (listening to fabulous jazz) so why not ruin it by talking about Mitt Romney? Hahah, well I don't want to ruin my mood on purpose but this is a topic I've been wanting to talk about for a good while.

As you may or may not know, the big election is in 4 days for the president of the United States.

We have many candidates running for president but I will only mention the two main ones.

We have: Barack Obama - current president of the USA

                                         - supports marriage equality, equality among men and women and other races

                                         - he actually cares for people with less wealth

                                         - unfortunately, he hasn't been the best president (Obamacare was a failure..), America and the rest of the world is in depth but having Mitt Romney as the president won't really change that. Whoever is in charge will have a tough time dealing with this. I've seen Obama take more action to try and fix the problems than anyone else. That's all that matters.

               Mitt Romney - He is very much known for his hate against the LGBTQ community. I have posted many articles here, with him expressing disgust and disrespect for people of other sexual orientations.. which is absolutely horrifying. He has also been degrading to women and never fully expressed his opinion on equality among men and women. I think it was in the 1st or 2nd debate when he was asked how would he react on discrimination of women which is going on in the USA right now (paying women less money for the same job as men) and you know what he did? He answered with an anecdote, barely mentioning the issue at hand without a conclusion. Outrageous. I highly recommend for you to read this article..

To sum it up, he attacked a student in high school because he was a homosexual. Well technically, the boy didn't even come out then, he only wore his hair over side of his face which resulted Romney into thinking he might be gay and he physically tackled the boy down and cut off his hair. Do you really want that kind of a person running whole United States? Sure about that?

As for the rest of the candidates.. I don't know much about them. I only heard Gary Johnson wants to legalize weed.. and that's about it. xD

Now regarding Obama once more.. I understand he messed some things up pretty hard and I'm not an expert nor living in America. I'm not aware half of the things Obama did or didn't do but I do know one thing. He cares for equality. Equality among all of us. That's what matters to me.

Let us all remember what Obama did for the LGBTQ community.

• Signed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, expanding federal hate crime law to include crimes motivated by gender, sexual orientation or gender identity. 
• Signed the Affordable Care Act of 2010, a comprehensive overhaul of America’s health care system that will hold insurance companies accountable, lower health care costs, guarantee greater patient choice, and enhance the quality of care for all Americans; LGBT Americans are disproportionately uninsured, and this law will provide access to affordable coverage and protection from insurance companies that deny coverage for pre-exisLting conditions. 
• Lifted the discriminatory ban on entry to the United States based on HIV status 
• Ordered the Department of Health and Human Services to guarantee medical decision making and visitation rights to LGBT couples 
• Expanded the Family Medical Leave Act to ensure that LGBT parents and partners can take leave from work to care for their child, parent, or spouse—a right afforded to any other family." 
• Repelled the 'Don't ask, don't tell' law in the military.
