Mr. Romney, Blacks, Latinos, Students and Women voted out of love for country

In general terms, could it be true that you are suffering from a case of case of 'Romnesia', as postulated by President Barack Obama during a campaign rally at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, in October of this year?

Ironically, this psycho-political condition could in the future be a possible diagnosis in the world of mental health, and it now appears that you are test case.

Mr. Romney, it was not long ago that you genuinely showed your true self in helping persons in need, and looking back to your time in Massachusetts, you helped struggling Americans on welfare and poverty.

At one point you showed concern about the very poor and even reportedly helped a poor family buy a house by personally loaning them money.

But as a presidential Republican candidate in 2012 you appeared to have shown of Romnesia as you blamed your then presidential opponent, Obama for giving “gifts” to the average or economically challenged Americans which include many Blacks, Latinos, Students and Women.

But what is true as it has always been is that each of these groups voted out of love for country, and you Sir, know it to be true, if not for the possibility of Romnesia.

Now many Americans and many people around the world to see you as a cold, calculating and merciless rich man.

Albeit shocking, as if you have not learned from your secret "47 percent" remarks which was widely viewed as disparaging, contemptuous, and detestable to nearly half of Americans, now this one—the issue of “gifts”.

In your time of monumental failure—meaning your Tuesday 6, 2012 presidential defeat you have again returned to manifesting a superior personal feeling towards some of your fellow Americans by seemingly shifting to the notion that you failed again because some Americans got the so called gifts.

No sir, each of these groups you talked about voted for their respective good in regards to women rights, pay equity, health care, social security, student grants, immigration status, and cultural equality.

As part of your pathological stand which some have termed a case of Romnesia you appeared to have said anything, engaged in anything and told anyone, anything during the election, and now you are saying anything like the giving of “gifts “to some Americans in order to score points of why you loss and failed in an “extraordinary” way.

As historically done in America you used the worn-out playbook or the old defense mechanism of blaming others like Blacks and others of no superior image for your great loss to an American man of humble beginnings, biracial background, and of a partly “foreign”(your own word) background or African ancestry , and most of all, a man with full conviction just like President Abraham Lincoln.

Sir, this manner of coping with your current personal distress is sickly, and you know it, especially for a man who was fitted with gifts from the very beginning of your life.

With Romnesia as a possible condition in your being many who were once on your side are now running from your current image and they include the likes of fellow Republican governors like Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, Scott Walker of Wisconsin, Susana Martinez of New Mexico and Chris Christie of New Jersey.

At the time of this writing they are all pointing fingers at you for entirely being out of control and dishonest in terms of how you are handling your current political temper in regards to your failure candidacy.

Sir, if it is true that you have this pre-existing condition of Romnesia, which the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity and others like them do not see this condition as an issue, on the other hand most Americans then and now see your political manner as cynical.

Mr. Romney, in spite of all the "gifts" you reportedly got from millionaires and billionaires like Sheldon Adelson, Miriam Adelson, Harold Simmons, Bob J. Perry, Robert T. Rowling, and William Koch still you failed on Election day—in spite of all the unrestrained “gifts”.

Sir, it now turns out that the gifts provided to Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, young voters, single women, and many other non-“traditional” white men proved to be more appealing for America.

Mr. Romney, gifts are not “in perpetuity” as you wrongly assumed, and what really motivated Black, Hispanic and other voters is love for country (your famous words), in addition to fighting to attain equal voice, pay, and opportunity.

Mr. Romney, we all wish you best of political health in the future, if any and may be this is the time to supplicate in your time of grieving and reflect using the Abraham Lincoln's Bible—a Holy book once used by President Barack Hussein Obama during his first inauguration.
