Interesting how personal wealth wasn't an issue at all when Al Gore and John Kerry were candidates.

Wealth only becomes objectionable and out-of-touch when it belongs to Republicans.



Likewise college grades and academic performance. Gore and Kerry, by the way, didn't disclose their college transcripts until many months AFTER their failed election bids.
And Barack Obama has never revealed his college transcripts. Or for that matter, how he was even admitted or paid for his tuition at Boston University or Harvard after academically underperforming, "drinking heavily and using drugs enthusiatically" in high school and at Occidental college (Obama's own words, from his autobiography DREAMS FROM MY FATHER)

The liberal media has for 5 years, and continues to, give Obama a major free pass on this. The media absolutely would not let it go when W. Bush let on in 2000 that he even tried cocaine. But here we have a sitting president who not only tried cocaine, but admittedly used it regularly and "enthusiastically" without the slightest trace of apology or remorse, and the media is nowhere to be found. It is not at all a stretch of the imagination that Obama may have sold drugs and used the profits to pay for his college, and incredibly, no one in the media cares.


Romney has used the same tax shelters that many other individuals and businesses have used for decades. Big deal.

Obama gave virtually nothing to charity his entire life until he was president and his lack of charity became an issue (that the liberal media again doesn't report). Romney has a cousin in Africa who lives on 3 dollars a month. Author Dinesh D'Souza created a charity to help the guy when cousin Barack Obama wouldn't, at which point the DNC gave the guy some money to shut him up. What little is reported, both Obama and Biden are notoriously stingy in their 9lack of) charitable givings. And only the public spotlight makes them tick it up slightly in recent years.


While Romney, in contrast, has been very charitable, and even gave away his entire inheritance when his father died.
