Romney: You Don't Credit The Bus Driver For A Kid Making The Honor Roll


and why the hell not? and we do! he gets them there. he's not the only credit but he's some of it-nobody gets anywhere w/o somebody else helping. parents, teachers, good friends, anonymous donors and neighbors- a community gets a kid from here to wherever. or not. and yes, the largest credit goes to the kid for getting thru the nightmare of public schools. truth.

Donni, I could not degree more, some people think they are on an Island and everything they accomplished was just because of their own initiative and drive. It's pretty hard if not impossible  for most of us to make it solely on our own with no help from anyone but self. People in my opinion and most religions teachings  believe that born into poverty or poor uneducated parents or single parent household, that those who have made it need to lend a hand.  I believe people who think they need no one are self-centered and  arrogant and don't have a clue what it means to be really trapped in poverty. kentay.
