The -- -- of the -- campaign sparking new debate over the role of women voters in the presidential contest now one conservative group called the -- lobby says.

That the picture painted by the president's campaign.

Isn't reality.

And the shape and founder of the money bodies joining us today thank you so much for being here and -- big -- campaign received lots of attention.

Talking about how all of the fictional Julia.

Would be cared for.

By the government from cradle to grave.

And it.

It's -- picture it was showing that if she is not.

Place in a situation where government programs -- -- to take care for that her future that's probably why you take issue with this.

We take issue -- that for one simple fact.

Women don't need nor want the government take care of them from -- and they want to independence.

And the freedom to make sound decisions and to take advantage of the opportunities that America as it was founded was have to have -- them.

How important do you think this voting bloc is in this election women voters.

-- and independent and conservative voters especially are extremely.

Important this election.

They.

They really will make the determining factor this November.

-- -- women are very concerned about economic issues what you're doing house and mothers particularly.

Have to realize you know and understand.

Obviously that there their roles are very important and also that they play a pivotal role in terms of making sure but budget for -- etc.

and yet.

People like yourself believe that it's really important not to.

Continue to show that government programs are.

The air for the taking and that it's important to go into for direction I think the most important thing that women voters are especially.

Concerned -- -- the selections is and is the economy mean the bottom line is is that.

We have so many problems right now there's over at the unemployment rate really the real on a -- -- fourteen point 5%.

Over 320 for a thousand women are dropping just have just dropped out of the workforce.

We a federal budget that is not we haven't had a federal budget in three years the deficit and the debt are out of control.

Women really are looking for somebody that is a strong leader and our.

One in it federal basically wanna commit to come -- and take control and the thing we can get this country how -- -- message out there.

We talked to women all the time and we just we explain to them what the real priorities are at that -- Alex -- really just asked them what are their priorities.

And the reality is is that the economy.

Jobs jobs jobs that's what they want you to hear a lot on the news about how the most important things are things are reproductive health.

Really that is not a top tier issue for women and -- the real -- -- issues are.

The economy they want to know that -- that they can.

Basically pay their bills -- the in the month for birth control.

That's great but it won't pay the bills it won't put -- on the table and it will not put gas in the car they meet job security.

And a strong economy in particular version we've been talking about today how much of -- factors that could -- I honestly think that in the real world in.

You know in real America.

There it they're important but they're not that important they're probably on the -- realist -- they're governor I mean they're really at the bottom of the list most important things are.

Or is the economy and knowing that the country is really getting back on track -- -- -- thank you so much for joining -- we can come back with you throughout the campaign and appreciate your comments thank you so much.
