57. British take on Mitt being booed - from the BBC - Romney jeered over healthcare in NAACP speech
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has been booed in a speech to a US civil rights group. He was jeered as he vowed to "kill" the Obama healthcare overhaul, and when he said he would be a better president for African Americans. "I will kill every expensive and unnecessary programme I can find, and that includes Obamacare," Mr Romney told the annual convention in Houston, Texas, pausing with a smile as he waited for the catcalls to fade. But jeers resumed as Mr Romney said: "If you want a president who will make things better in the African-American community, you are looking at him. You take a look." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-18801596 There is a video report at the link. |
