-- delegates -- -- ladies and gentlemen.

The convention will be an order.

Yeah.

You know we begin tonight.

With a fundamental question.

Can we do better.

Then after -- -- it was obvious you've got.

We can.

In other America -- emotional after the question where the jobs.

-- President Obama only offers excuses instead of answers.

His record is the shadow of his rhetoric.

Yet he has the nerve to say that he's moving us forward.

And the audacity to hope that we're gonna believe them.

Allow me to illustrate.

-- not what you'd call a regular guy with a big job.

I've got eleven Brothers and sisters and my dad my uncles on the bar in Cincinnati.

I -- are growing up mopping floors waiting tables and embark.

So believe me -- -- -- -- learn how to deal with every character of who walked in the door.

So let's say right now some -- Clark didn't Karbala a couple of guys looking for work cabinet -- go of it.

And the guys the private sector is doing fine.

-- -- -- -- -- That's right we throw him out.

-- that's a guy walked into our bar full of people pay more for health care they're more for gas pay more for everything.

And this -- what's right well.

We're better off probably one of them.

Well you know what we do.

We brought out.

Now my -- walked into -- bar full of folks who couldn't tell.

I couldn't tell you the last time -- got to raised whether wells was above water and the guys that while we tried our economic plan that I worked.

You don't what we do we -- Now -- out locked the door -- ball -- -- -- it and then.

-- over our regular television story.

Turns out this -- ran a small business got involved they'll put him out while he was in school.

Then I don't know -- business partner died.

That had just one customer.

So -- our clientele through sleepless nights and close calls they've made it thank god paid their dues problem what they've managed to do.

Now I want to know Bard heard that story and he said well.

If you've got a business you didn't build that.

Well you know what we do want them gone through and we've all.

By the way about small business guy -- my story.

That was our our business.

And we did build that.

But you know I could've just as easily but the story of anyone who's built something from nothing.

No guarantees.

No government there to hold your hand just a dream and the desire to do better.

President Obama doesn't get this.

He can't fix the economy because he doesn't know how it was built.

Some seventy days when the American people walk into the voting Booth what should we do.

Should -- Because we can do better we can do a lot better and it starts out starts with throwing out the politician who doesn't give it.

And electing a new president who does.

In on Mitt Romney comes my family builders.

His father build houses built businesses build industry.

George Romney was -- to kind of guy and a fond of the old saying someone things around their worst.

That's just replaced and the time that the tide will turn.

-- delegates this is that time and this is that place.

We're here to preserve this country the same way -- build it by exercising our god given right to set a new course.

So who better to turn this side of the man who has dedicated his career to doing just that.

For states for businesses for the Olympic Games.

President Romney.

-- like the sound of that.

Yeah probably won't keep those word and he'll keep his courage to.

-- keep faith with the idea that government exists to serve the people and the people who built this economy.

-- -- -- will build a stronger middle class through energy independence.

Schools where our kids not that teachers unions come first.

Free trade up -- -- budget and an end to the uncertainty -- the tax sites that threaten small businesses.

It's a big job.

So we're fortunate the -- has chosen his running mate as a leader.

Who is second to -- when it comes to rooting out and fits in Washington's worst happens.

When -- -- -- run to -- two years ago he was a student at Miami of Ohio.

Voluntary -- all my first campaign for congress.

Soon they'll be our party's nominee for vice president of the United States.

Who says this isn't the greatest country on earth.

Another call -- America's comeback team.

We'll have a good comeback.

Needs to be true believers.

So do you believe that we can do better if you want your children and our children to have a stronger more problem prosperous America.

That Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan needs your help.

Because we cannot turn this -- Only -- if all of us are all in all of the time.

All the way until the sixth of November.

It starts here for the convention the believed to victory for our party -- more importantly victory for our people and a great cause of freedom.

God bless you.
