- To do this we need a strong economy, and more jobs.
- Have to strengthen our military in the long term.
- Make decisions based upon uncertainty, will not cut military budget.
- Stay strong with our allies. Don't abandon them (i.e., removal of missles from Poland).
- Have an agenda for the future. Will create 12 million jobs and a rise in take home pay.
- 5 point plan: Energy independence (coal, oil and nuclear), increase trade (latin america), training programs, balanced budget (help entrepreneurs), and champion small business.
- This administration has made some of these issues worse.

Obama
- America needs to be the one indispensable nation.
- We have focussed on alliances that have been neglected for a decade.
- Unprecented cooperation with Israel.
- Need to start rebuilding America by creating jobs.
- Control our own energy. Need to develop non-renewable and renewables.
- Need to reduce our deficit. Romney's plan does not do this.
- Romney proposes wrong and reckless policies. Policies that have got us into this mess.
- Romney business policies in Mass. made his state 48th out of 50 in small businesses.
- We reformed education. Worked with 46 states. Schools are finally making progress. Will hire more math and science students. They will make a difference.
