Here's a suggestion for a Romney question: [font color="red"]"Gov. Romney, given that your policies of cutting taxes for the wealthy and deregulation (repeal of Dodd-Frank) are the same embraced by George Bush, why do you think you won't produce another Trickle Down - Deregulation disaster like Bush did?"[/font]

For President Obama: [font color="blue"]"Mr. President, given that the GOP is campaigning saying "your policies didn't work" when they filibustered and fought everything you proposed to repair the damage wrought by their Trickle Down Deregulation disaster, including filibustering the American Jobs Act to death, would you say that their campaign is lacking something in the honesty department?"[/font]


.... other question ideas could be shared here too.

1. The net worth of the top 400 wealthiest individuals in the US grew by $200 billion.

Given the talk of cutting Medicare, Social Security and college tuition while household incomes dropped 1.5%, is this good policy?

2. Will you sign a budget that cuts Social Security or Medicare benefits?

3. How can both of you agree on trade policy

while some 80% of the US population disagrees with both of you?

4. Stolen technology

What can we do to safeguard our emerging technology from other countries who, because of low labor costs, can produce the products at a far lower cost than we can, as happened with Solyndra.
