A Plate Full

Should Mitt Romney win, he will face all the challenges Ronald Reagan did when he saved the country from Jimmy Carter, plus Romney will have the added responsibility of ridding the United States of Obamacare. Romney must loose the chains of regulation strangling business and stifling growth, keeping America in recession. Mitt must contain entitlement spending and tamp down the budget that Obama has permitted to explode. Romney must tackle the Federal deficit and the national debt and return rights and responsibilities to the states. Romney must push the idea of individual responsibility and rid the United States of Obama's warped concept of "collective salvation". Like Reagan, Romney will face the menace of the Islamic Republic of Iran, but unlike the 1980s, while the US faces no Hostage Crisis, Romney will have to confront the threat of aggressive jihad that has now permeated the entire Middle East and threatens areas as far afield as India, the Philippines, Thailand, Russia and former Soviet Republics, and as was seen on September 11, 2001 and July 7, 2005, Western capitals. Romney, again like Reagan after Carter, will have to rebuild America's national defense after Obama reduced spending only in the Defense Department while puffing entitlements to never before reached levels of spending. Much work needs to be done to restore our prosperity and national strength, and Romney is the candidate who can start the process of reversing the Obama decline of these United States.
