I am sure most people have seen the video of Mitt Romney saying that 47 percent of the American people think they are entitled to health care, shelter, food and want the government to take care of them.

I paid taxes all of my working years. I am not retired, and I am part of the 47 percent. I am entitled to my Social Security and Medicare. I own my own home, buy my own food and pay my own bills. I worked for more than 40 years and paid into these programs. So, yes, I am entitled to them.

When Romney went overseas, he insulted England, France and Poland. Is this his foreign policy? I don’t understand how Mitt thinks he can be president after insulting the American people the way he did. Does he think he is entitled to be president?

Romney is a president wannabe, but he will never be.
