Obama v. Romney (Presidential Debate of 2012)

Romney goes on offense, forcing Obama to defend record By David Nakamura & Philip Rucker, StudentNewsDaily.com

 

This article is basically about what’s going on in the presidential debate between Barack Obama (Democratic Party) & Mitt Romney (Republican Party) both sides however have very compelling arguments.

 

 

My details and or evidence I have on my information is that the article has been written by David Nakamura & Philip Rucker who’ve actually went out to some of the debates to take note on what was being discussed and argued over some of the debates these two went too were the debate of Wednesday, October 3, 2012, the debate of Thursday, October 11, 2012 (vice presidents debate), and Tuesday, October 16, 2012 and of course many more and they went to each of these debates and carefully took notes like I’ve already stated of what was being said and discussed in the debate.

 

 

My opinion on this article is that the debate between Romney v. Obama is a pretty fierce one to sit down and watch, for example Obama and Romney always find a way to taint each others reputations by basically down talking each others plans for when one of them get into office, Another example to my opinion is Obama’s and Romney’s clash on Medicare because they’re both promising to protect the program for the elderly but then Obama accused Romney of wanting to turn it into a voucher program, while Romney claimed that the president cut $716 million from Medicare to help pay for the Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare. So in conclusion to my opinion this is an interesting debate because even though I’m democratic I’m not subjective and I must say both sides arguments are very interesting.

 

 

Thanks to me reading this article I’m now more informed about the 2012 debate which is a very important thing to be informed on just like any other presidential debate that includes the U.S but also because you can’t just go around saying that you’re a Democrat or a Republican and not know what’s currently going on in politics because then you’re decision wouldn’t be as fully adamant as you think it might be. This article also has helped me because it’s helped me towards my future when I’m finally enabled to vote I’ll be able to look at other debates in the future and then decide on my own who is the right choice for the presidential office and reading this article has basically helped me to critically think over the debate and what I was going to write for it.
