Exactly! What was he thinking to make a statement like that.
It was awkward statement, but I understand exactly what he was saying, and so does everyone else, except of course, the Romney bashers.
He was saying that his sons are doing what many good and responsible younger citizens do in America. They are helping perpetuate peaceful democracy by going out and campaigning.
They are getting involved in the heart of American politics, that rough and tumble game which ... YES, does require some sacrifice and diligence.
It is the disrespectful dolts in America who sit on their butts and complain about everything without going out there and trying to make a difference.
