Congressmen-james E, Cylbrun [] I chose this person because he seems like a guy that would fix things when they needed to be fixed and he will get them done quick. Also I agree with a lot of things he has said.

I think that Romney would be a good president of the U.S. Because he said some really good ideas in his speeches and I like when he said about jobs “more jobs Better jobs.
