#AskRomney

Mitt Romney, a Republican candidate for president of the United States and former governor of Massachusetts, is going to be doing an interview with Diane Sawyer on Monday. On Twitter the Democrats launched a hashtag called #AskRomney to put forward questions he should be asked. Below are a few things I think should be asked:

• how/where should women get preventive care if they don't have health insurance and you defund planned parenthood.

• why do you think gays and lesbians are not entitled to the same rights as you and your wife by opposing gay marriage

• if tax breaks for the rich help the economy, why isn't the economy better and the pay equality gap so high after TEN YEARS of tax breaks?

• if increasing domestic oil production is the key to lowering gas prices then why are gas prices still so high even though domestic oil production is at its highest levels in decades if not history.

• what would you propose we do with all the illegal immigrants who are already in this country, some of whom are kids attending our schools and hoping to be successful members of our society or even join the military?

• if you do not support having foreign countries' militaries stay on our soil for years or decades, why is it OK for our military to stay in Afghanistan indefinitely like you have proposed?

• if you are no longer for an individual mandate being done on a federal level why were you for it just a few years ago? 

• what qualifies you to make better health/life decisions of a woman than the woman herself especially when it comes to whether or not she can have an abortion or use contraceptives?

• do you oil and gas companies should continue to have taxpayers subsidize them when they are making record profits in the multi-billion dollar range?

I could go on, but I think he'd get my drift. Most of these could be applied to Republicans in general but seeing how the focus is on Romney, I hope Sawyer asks him at least one of these questions.
