He's just not like us. Look at his hair.

I often wonder about Mit Romney and how he views the world around him. Obviously his perspective is far removed from mine. Me, being from a blue collar family. He, having grown up in privilege and comfort having no worries or needless wants. And that, I don’t understand. Then on the other hand, I ponder about poor kids growing up in the ghetto of large urban areas. Having so little they have to resort to criminal acts to obtain what they want. Sometimes just food and clothes. Nothing else. Risking their own freedoms for somebody else’s money and life. Still I don’t understand how they resort to such behavior. Why can’t they do better? Likewise, I’m sure Mit Romney looks at we middle classers and has no clue why we think and act the way we do. Why must we depend on the federal and state government for some social services, education, and health care. Why can’t we do this on our own, he might conjecture. “It would be so simple.” None the less, for a person wanting to be president of the United States, you would think he might take the time to learn and understand the middle class. Like mingling with the street level people. He could read some books. Read the newspaper. Talk to anyone on Main street. Maybe visit a grocery store and buy a carton of eggs or a gallon of milk. Just to find out what it’s like to be middle class. Possibly learn how much food and clothe cost on a limited budget. And then follow someone to the bank as he or she cashes a paycheck. And then watch how the average person budget his or her money to make ends meet. It really wouldn’t take much to discover how to live a middle class life. Just shadow someone and find out. Then maybe he might glean a different perspective. But, since he has not done that, I feel he is not fit to be President. He doesn’t know me and tens of millions like me. People living from day to day on limited resources. How could he make decisions and make good legislation based only on his limited exposure. Thus, he is mostly clueless and unaware of the greater American population and it’s needs and hardships. To me, privilege is a negative not an asset. It’s just another fault to disqualify him as possible President.
