MAKING YOUR DECISION
WHAT WILL BENEFIT YOU AND THOSE YOU CARE ABOUT THE MOST?



Of course, we want to make the decision that will benefit us the most, including what will benefit our future generations in our family.  In deciding who will benefit us the most, we must focus on the results that are reasonable to expect, based on reality.  We must not let just "agreement" with or "liking" or "nice ideas" or nice promises rule our decisions, as this is not about personality or popularity contests but about the actual benefit to ourselves.

To do this, as on the home page, we must answer two questions. I copy that part in the box below.

1.  Who is, by far, the most capable of doing the actual job excellently!
2.  Who will do what I value? (i.e what is the net benefit to me given what I value and the capability of getting effective implementation. 

Glance at the box or go into the references and/or skip over to the discussion after the box.

TWO QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED (If the first is not met, then the second is not relevant.)

***1.   WHO IS, BY FAR, THE MOST CAPABLE OF DOING THE ACTUAL JOB EXCELLENTLY?

   QUALIFICATIONS FOR THE JOB - Specified clearly here, and they must be required.
           Does he meet those qualifications?   (COMPARED With The Other Candidates, incl. Obama.)

    Romney has PROOF of managing and governing experience.  Others are not even close.
         Proof page - Also see the overviews for what Romney has actually done:
              ScanWho Romney Is, At A Glance:  Character, Altruism, Proven Capability, Highest Values
              Life And Accomplishments - In video
         Experience Comparison Page

***2.  WILL HE DO WHAT I VALUE?  (See Will he benefit me? and Walks his talk).

     Without fiscal responsibility and good management, other goals cannot be achieved.
     He will do what Americans vote for, representing all Americans, no one left behind 

Projecting What The Presidencies Of These Candidates Will Be Like - What do you think?
    _________________________________________________________________________________

TO ANSWER THIS:

1.  Find out who Romney is, his qualifications - At a glance or as deeply as you wish.
    See/scan Who Romney Is, At A Glance:  Character, Altruism, Proven Capability, Highest Values
     Consider video sequence:  Life And Accomplishments  
2.   Compare The Candidates.
3.  Explore by subject, via the Menu, as you wish (reading a piece a day for pacing?)

VALUES TIMES EFFECTIVENESS = RESULTS

If a candidate lines up with your values totally, but is unable to deliver, then the value to you would be zero (or close to that).

If there is no threat to your values even if the candidate might not be aligned with them, then this is a zero factor also.  For instance, the right to choose and gay rights are non-overcomeable, as the public is dramatically in favor of the two and very few are opposed (the latter is the key item to pay attention to, of course).  Public polls, evolving more toward these "rights":  opposed to gay marriage, 43%; opposed to gay civil unions, 31%;  right to choose: 29% favor making abortion illegal in the first trimester.  Gay civil unions are very feasible and gay marriage is likely at some point, but the latter will only happen state by state, as it is not a federal issue.  Abortion rights are absolutely safe.  This is all positive.

The issues left (and who can get the desired results) then are:  (You can give them both grades on the linked page "Grading The Candidates On The Issues And Implementation Capability.")

Economics, prosperity, jobs, training
Basic protection for health purposes, and when unemployed, and for those unable to care for themselves
Preserving absolutely the "paid-in" programs of Social Security and Medicare
Independence on oil production, effect of that on jobs and trade deficits and the dollar
Illegal immigration
Environment, climate warming (balanced approach that is prioritized based on actual effectiveness)
Security of the country (probably no difference, as it is more of an absolute, perhaps some advantage to Romney)
