The presidential debate was held at the Magnus Arena in Denver, Colorado (Situation). Both men spoke out to millions of citizen, whether it be republican, democrats, or you at home (Listeners). Filmed on stage, it was viewed by way of television broadcast (Channel). Even the people who could care less, like me, found this debate very interesting. And, although it peaked my interest, I still had to look at the key facts, and determine who I would like to be my president.
President Obama stated why and how he would lower tax rates for small businesses and middle class families. He also stated how he would change the tax coat, use savings to rebuild America, as well as become energy independent. Romney had some similar thoughts as well, but he also stated he would like to create more jobs and open more trade here in America. The men also agreed on the subject of education, and how they would get more funding and teachers in more schools. But, although they had many agreements, they also had some opinions on why each should get the position over the other.
President Barack Obama has a lot of people’s votes because he can relate. He grew up in somewhat of a similar lifestyle as most of us Americans. Romney on the other hand, was born and raised rich, so he can’t really relate. Most would also prefer Obama because of his views on gay marriage. We have more important things to worry about, yet Romney wishes to ban it, as if it affects our economy.
Each man stated some very interesting and important facts
