Watch: Obama On Letterman Responds To Romney’s 47 Percent Comment
President Barack Obama today taped an interview for tonight’s David Letterman show, telling Letterman that he doesn’t know who Mitt Romney was referring to when he said 47% of America won’t vote for him because their dependent on the government. But then Obama said that when he became president, 47% of Americans voted for John McCain (a brilliant response!)
Obama also stated that when he became president he told Republicans that he was the president of all Americans.
That’s something that Mitt Romney abdicated when he made his comments at that fundraiser.
Note: Apologies for the large size video bleeding over — Buzzfeed’s video doesn’t scale.
