Mitt Romney is the current Republican Party candidate for President of the United States and 70th Massachusetts governor. He has been married to Ann Romney since 1969 and they have five children whose names are Taggart, Matthew, Joshua, Benjamin, and Craig. Opponents often use his faith in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and tendency to frequently change his political stances as weapons against him. Prior to serving as governor, he spent 18 years at the head of Bain Capital, a venture capital firm. The healthcare reform bill he signed while governor later inspired the Affordable Care Act.

Introduction

This blog will cover every topic known to man, no matter how hard they are to understand, in simple terms without exceeding 100 words per entry. Why limit myself to 100 words, you ask? In this day and age, people do not have the time to digest thousands of words when they're really looking for certain things within the text. If every subject were condensed to 100 words, it would save us all a lot of time that we could use to learn about other things. Other websites try too hard and drag their articles on in excruciating detail.
