The content of his character

Hunter connects the dots:

Willard Mitt Romney is quite convinced that the contents of a person's tax returns are defining evidence of their character. He is equally insistent that he does not want anyone to see his own. It would be remiss to assume there is no connection between the two beliefs.

Selfish people vs. citizens

The best thing Obama ever said:

[A] freedom which only asks what’s in it for me, a freedom without a commitment to others, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense.... 

America is not about what can be done for us. It’s about what can be done by us, together, through the hard and frustrating but necessary work of self-government.
