Mitt Romney compares himself to JFK as Nancy Reagan endorses him for presidency - VIDEO

One major difference between Romney and Jack Kennedy is their military records. Kennedy served heroicaly as a navy officer in W.E.11, but Ronmney has NO military record because he managed to get draft deferments in the 60s until he became old enough to avoid serving. His lack of military service, hower, does NOT make Romney less patriotic that his opponent, who not onlly failed to join the military service,but his favorite clergyman publicly stated: "I ask God to damn Amerca".

Searlit: I wanted to add to your fine comment about Democrat versus democratic. The otherday at theunveiling of Feorge Bush's presidential painting, Obama referred to the "Democratic and Republican" parties. Seems that even the party leaders who should have a clue about language, do not.

I posted this earlier to give some facts about Mr. Romney. First he donated his inherirance to charity. Second he was highly recruited out of college because of his achievements far above his other classmates at BYU and harvard. ------At BYU, he graduated with highest honors and gave a speech at graduation. He got accepted to a recently created dual-degree program in law and business at Harvard. Of hundreds of Romney's law and business school classmates at Harvard, just 15 earned the dual degree — which packed courses required for the two degrees into less time than earning them separately. Romney didn't just earn the degree. He graduated with honors from the law school and in the top 5 percent of his class in the business school, according to The Real Romney. His mere presence among the elite MBA/JD earners got him heavily recruited by Boston Consulting Group. So while he passed the Michigan bar in case he needed to go back to his dad's state to work near the car industry, it wouldn't be necessary. --just a little back ground, where are Obama's school records?

Does this mean hes going to get the back of his ear blown off

Nice, Nancy Reagan is still alive! The Man's 1st name is Willard. He was named after a Rat! And I hated the movie.

Romney will never be able to compare himself to either FDR or JFK. He just doesn't have the stamina or balls. And as for Nancy Reagan endorsing him for President, she is getting too old and losing her mind. All she wants is to be with Ronnie anyway.

I doubt that Mitt Romney would want to be like JFK. JFK was a womanizer and I would be surprised if Romney stepped out on his wife. My husband was in the military in the early 1960 stationed in Germany with the NATO Forces and I was there as well so I got a close up of a lot of what went on. We were in Germany when JFK died.

Kennedy started the Viet Nam War by increassing the US so called advisors and the murder of the Viet Namese President in the same month he was assasinated and 58,000 US military died as a result of it not to mention at least 400.000 innocent civilians, as well as hundreds of thousands maimed and deformed by the US air raids, agent orange and other horrendous and vile tormentations and assaults rained on the Viet Namese people. Kennedy could do nothing about the recession, his recommendations for decrease in taxes, decrease not increase, were foiled by Congress and nothing resulted. Kennedy encouraged war in Laos -- he wanted to send in US troops there as well as Viet Nam but was forced to commit to US neutrality by Khrushev who saw through his shallow facade. Kennedy was well cold in his grave when Johnson introduced the Civil Rights Act. Kennedy was too spineless to do it. The US Space Program began well before JFK even knew what it was. In 1958 Jupiter C Rocket was launched into space thanks to Werner Von Braun, a German scientist who the US wooed to the US after WWII.The Russians chose not to use nuclear weapons, they could have chewed up Kennedy and spitted him out if they chose to do so. Khrushev made a fool of Kennedy when they met in Vienna in 1961. Woodman, you're the joke.

seanmelbourne -I said there were exceptions,I parrot no one.Let me ask you a question ,Are you jealous of the success of others as many are in these posts.I think not,because you sound like you take pride in being self made as do I.I grew up in an America where it was possible to become self made,now with so much govt.interference ,regulations etc.it is no wonder corps,are going off shore.If you are true to who I think you are,you understand what I am saying.

Compare "Funny Undies" with Ronnie Raygun. Ronnie, like many former Presidents was a member of the Bohemian Grove. I'll bet Mitt is.

i think it is great. Better than Obama saying he has Irish blood in him. You people should protest.

So Mitt is comparing himself to JFK, now I have heard everything. He is about as much like JFK as a railroad spike, in fact I give it to the spike. Searlit I'm suprise that George Warmunger Bush could speak at all being that he is so stupid.

Can I just clear up one thing? Democrat is a noun. Democratic is an adjective. When referring to the candidate, or office holder, one should say Democratic President, not democrat President, etc.. Thank-you. I know it's not your fault. George W kept saying it wrong all through his administrations.

And to those taking the usual, partisan cheap shots at Romney's name: Your backing of a weirdo named Barack Obama (whose name sounds like a banana split in the jungle with crushed rock candy, on it) rather undermines your already irrelevant efforts to stop Romney, doesn't it? Obama's barely treading water (or flat-out losing ground) in every poll, and all you can do is take cheap shots at his NAME (while backing a guy named Barack Obama)? That's almost too good -- but it's clearly all you have. That's pretty pathetic.

Oh, another one of THESE types of articles...where you have to actually read beyond the headline to get the accurate picture. If Romney is comparing his wealth to JFK and FDR (both of whom were BORN into wealth rather than CREATING it for themselves), that's a wee bit different than trying to BE JFK or FDR, which the bulk of Democrat candidates do quite shamelessly but are never called on it. And who would WANT to be either of them, anyway? Not only did they have their own noticeable shortcomings (in policy AND their personal lives -- though JFK would be a true-blue conservative by today's standards), but everyone should be their own person, anyway -- and stop constantly trying to be someone else. Either way, Romney has a lot more in common with JFK than Obama could ever DREAM of -- and that's in every way imaginable. And btw, lest anyone leap I'm not even a Romney person; he would have been one of my last choices to oppose Obama, but now that he's the nominee, like a growing majority of the country (and like most of my fellow independents), I'm backing him over Obama.
