Trump: Media are biggest threat to Romney's presidential campaign
MSNBC ^ | Junw 1, 2012 | Andrew Rafferty

Speaking at the North Carolina GOP Convention, Trump praised Romney for his business experience and promise to stand up against China and fight for American economic interests. But the business mogul also focused a portion of his speech on his questions about where President Obama was born. It is the reason why on Tuesday, when Romney earned the 1,144 delegates necessary to secure his party's nomination, much of the news cycle was devoted to his decision to appear with Trump at a fundraiser that day.

A desire by the media to protect Obama is the reason Trump told the more than 1,000 people gathered here that reporters are "really dishonest" and "the biggest thing Mitt Romney has to fear is the press. They don't tell the truth."

And during his address, Trump again used his appearance as a platform to question the president's birth certificate, the reason he has branded himself as a controversial figure on the national political scene. Calling for the president to release his college records, Trump said, "There is one line called place of birth, I'd like to see what he said..Perhaps it's going to say Hawaii, perhaps it's going to say Kenya."

Since you think the media is not the villain then you are a leftist.

Actually I disagree with the donald. I believe romney’s record is his biggest threat to his presidential campaign. The author of obombacare. A pro-choice (aka - abortion) candidate that’s all for growing government has some issues he needs to overcome but... Aaaahhhh. Why bother. He purchased his nomination fair and square. For over four hundred years my family has lived on this continent as a free people. Now it’s only a matter of time before we’re all enslaved or meeting with an early demise.
