WB: Mitt Romney

Mass. Governor Mitt Romney said America's future will be determined not just by heads of state, but heads of households.

Romney said there is a societal role for family, which is a building block of society. He cited the benefits of a solid family such as better adjusted kids who are less likely to be involved in crime, teen pregnancy, drug use, etc.

The family is a vital economic unit, he said. Romney said the most important work that goes on in America is in the four walls of the home.

Romney said two parents are the ideal for raising children. He said one of the biggest threats to the family is out of wedlock births; he said as president he would tell people they need to get married before they make babies.

Romney praised Bill Cosby for telling it like it is, with regard to the family.

Romney said his wife Ann would champion the cause of challenging young people not to have children out of wedlock.

He said that fathers should be responsible for the health and welfare of children, regardless of whether they marry the mother.

He also spoke against the marriage tax penalty. He said he would reimplement the Family Impact Statement which examines the impact of legislation on the family.

Romney said he would champion the passage of a Federal Marriage Amendment to protect the definition of marriage.

Romney said the MA Supreme Court decision which found a right for homosexuals to "marry" in their state constitution was unfounded and not in the constitution. He said a FMA is the only way to protect marriage from unelected liberal judges.

Romney said he would be a pro-life president, appointing justices that follow the Constitution and don't legislate from the bench. He said he'd oppose taxpayer funding of abortion and partial birth abortion. He said he would work to deny embryonic cloning. He said his record as MA governor was always pro-life. He said that he was a convert to this cause.

He spoke against internet pornography, "especially as it concerns our children." He said he would work to ensure that every computer sold would contain a filter that parents could use to protect their children. And as for predators, "One strike and you're ours. That means long prison sentences,and if you ever get out, it's an ankle bracelet for life."

He said he would work for better schools and school choice. He said we should help homeschoolers with a federal tax credit to help defray the cost of schooling expenses.

Romney said he wanted to defend our religious heritage. He said the anti-religion of secularism has to come to an end, that we are a nation under God.

He said he understood that some people might have a problem with his Mormonism, but that his campaign is about changing Washington to help people.

"We're not going to beat Hillary Clinton by acting like Hillary Clinton," Romney said.
