Ann Romney on Leno: ‘I love the fact that we have the first African-American president’

Ann Romney on Leno: ‘I love the fact that we have the first African-American president’ After reading this my thoughts are this: I really hope no one would vote against this guy because he's Mormon, that should have no bearing and a lot of people simply don't want a really rich guy in office and on that i'm on the fence, his wealth has nothing to do with what is wrong with him as a president, how he got it, might, depending on your views, and I really hope people focus on stuff like that, this is how this guy works, do I want that in the whitehouse or don't I. same goes for the sound bites and gaffes those are fun to laugh at but they lack the substance that a life's work has. yes the "how you acquire" is very relevant, guess i'm saying that and that wealth in and of itself should not be a dis-qualifier though if you were born wealthy and only got more so, even if you are good and smart and skilled you might not have any idea about a lot of stuff that is important to the people you represent. but I look at warren buffet and think, i'd be conflicted about him taking office, on the one hand he's worth so much how could he possibly connect but he wasn't always that well off and he got where he was by doing a great job of keeping a cool head in hot times, valuable skill, whereas bill gates, eh, his intelligence and skillset just don't offset the fact that he was born rich and got much richer, there's a piece that he cant really be in touch with even with his philanthropy work.
