A couple of comments from Mitt Romney.
"I will never apologize for America," Romney says often – suggesting that Obama has done just that, even though the president hasn't.

Romney also emphasizes what he calls his belief that America is exceptional – implying that his Democratic rival has a different view even though Obama has said that he sees the country as exceptional, too. All that plays to a belief in conservative circles that Obama has traveled the country making excuses for America's involvement in foreign countries.

"We have a president who I don't think understands the nature of America, the power of opportunity and freedom," Romney told a crowd in Derry, N.H., last month. "I want to bring these things back to America so we have a brighter future for our kids."

During an appearance in North Liberty, Iowa, Romney said: "The president said he wants to fundamentally transform America. . I kind of like America. I'm not looking for it to be fundamentally transformed into something else. I don't want it to become like Europe." It's a comment he's repeatedly made.

In some cases, Romney gets corny and he repeatedly combines the lines with a story about how his parents drove him across the country in the family Rambler to see America's national parks.

"I love the founding documents," the candidate says frequently before crowds as he quotes from the Declaration of Independence. "I love the Constitution!" is another Romney favorite. That includes, by the way, everything that's been added to it. "I love all the amendments!" he said in September. "I love the Second Amendment. I love the 10th Amendment."

Yes but both the 2nd and the 10th Amendments were already part of the Constitution during Joey Smiths lifetime...

Its the Amendments since that the Mormons object to and say have destroyed the document...

Items like US citieznship for former black slaves and their descendants

Full US citizenship for Native Americans

the vote for blacks,

the vote for women

Civil rights for all

etc

These are the things that are different now about the Constitution..

Other than the safe talking points that somebody fed to him that you mentioned

Willie Mitty has never said a thing about the additions since 1844

To him and other TBMs the Constitution is “hanging by a thread” and Willie must rush in and save it

and RESTORE it and the country back to where they were during Joey Smiths lifetime...

Ask him to explain why things need to be RESTORED

ask him what is it that must be RESTORED

Ask him what is it that his fathers believced...

(What exactly is “the faith of my fathers”

Remember his fathers faith goes back several generations to the first Mormon Romneys in 1820-30

He claims to believe all that they believed..

That would include the hatred of America and raging war against her and the US government and the blood oathes of vengence for the death of Joey Smith)

The white horse prophecy...only the Mormons can save the Constitution...

Theyve been trying to get a Mormon in the White house to rulle over us since the first Mormon Joey Smith himself ran for president in 1844

Well yes I can see where he would say that

hes not used to singing it and he just learnt the corny words for the first time on this trip

he never sang it in 2008 on the campaign trail...

Though its a first time Ive ever heard such an insult about a patriotic sone..

Most people love the song..the words mean something to Americans

Since its not something he normally does he gets told its strange

and yes the other Romneys would mock about the song...

people who are ashamed of America and have no pride wouldnt like that song

Its too down home

its too flyover country

Its too American...

Nobody has yet told me why they imagine Willard Mitt Romney “loves” America..

BTW you did take into account that he is a TWO Time draft dodger didnt you ???
