My main interest right now are Mitt Romney and Online Debate reform.

 

 

Interest

I am interested in the following subjects:

 

 

I am interested in explaining my beliefs in a “reasons to agree and disagree” format. I want to organize my beliefs in such a way that a computer could evaluate the validity of each reason to agree. I would also like to be able to re-use reasons to agree, for multiple conclusions.

Why I Support Mitt Romney for President;

 

 

I, like Mitt Romney, want to change the way that politics are debated.

 

Romney said; "I am used to debating things back and forth," he said. Credited even by critics with having an agile mind, Romney said he has learned to manage by "hiring people smarter than I am and then arguing with them," adding: "I will by nature disagree when everybody has the same view; I want to hear an alternative." Washington Post

 

Of his 1994 campaign for Ted Kennedy’s spot in the Senate Romney said; "Ideas I brought forward were dissected and distorted to their illogical extreme...the campaign had been about charges and misperceptions, not ideas and ideals."

 

I want campaigns to be about ideas and ideals, not charges, misperceptions, accusations, and oversimplifications. To do this I would like to create a forum where everyone on the internet is able to organize reasons to agree or disagree with different policies. I would put these reasons in separate columns, you guessed it, labeled Reasons to agree and Reasons to disagree.

 

I think Mitt Romney is the only candidate who believes in innovation enough to make the political campaign about ideas and ideals, instead of oversimplifications and misrepresentations.

 

I don’t want Mitt Romney to out maneuver his competitors, I want him to change the system so that the best ideas will naturally survive. I think Mitt Romney is the only candidate capable of creating a survival of the fittest idea system.

 

Mitt Romney has demonstrated that he “want to hear an alternative." Washington Post
