A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds voters in are divided on whether President Obama and Mitt Romney's campaigns are telling the truth or purposely misleading the public.
By 49% to 42%, slightly more voters believe the Obama campaign is "saying things it believes to be true" rather than "intentionally misleading people." For Romney's team the numbers are roughly flipped: 43% say they are telling the truth, 48% not.

(270 posts)President Roosevelt did not have an easy time of it. The forces of greed and self-interest feared him and fought hard against him, and so heres what he said:
"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power." President Franklin D. Roosevelt in Message to Congress on Curbing Monopolies, April 29, 1938
He said what needed to be said, and thats why he was a great president who saved the country, made it great, and left a great legacy.
Read Roosevelt's Great Legacy, and many of his words.
