Personally, I was a good kid when I was young, and all the bad kids (even though they did not bully me personally) made the world much worse for me. I feel like I have basically the same character I had when I was a kid. I do not think people change that much.
I *might* hire Romney as a shift manager, but I can't believe someone like that would grow up to be governor, much less be able to run for potus. Even if someone is competent for a particular job, this is the biggest job on the planet that should entail the highest standards. I admit that I had problems in my past that would prevent me from becoming potus, which is why I would not even consider running for a high office like that in the first place.
As they say, the American people deserve better.
