Here’s the Speech by a Utah Mayor at the RNC That Has Everyone Talking

Aug. 28, 2012 8:19pm
GOP House Candidate Mia Love Impresses at Republican National Convention

Mia Love (Source: CSPAN)

Mia Love, mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah and GOP candidate for U.S. Congress, outperformed expectations in her speech at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday, blasting President Obama for his “failed” policies and explaining why he isn’t the right candidate to protect the “American dream.”

She is hoping to become the first black GOP congresswoman, Fox News reports. Love is also a first-generation Haitian-American and a Mormon.

“Let me tell you about the America I know,” Love said. “My parents immigrated to this country with $10 in their pockets and the hope that the America they heard about really did exist.”

She explained that she was ingrained with a sense of personal responsibility at an early age by her parents, who taught her that great things can be achieved with hard work in America. That was the American dream, they told her.

“The America I now is grounded in the determination found in patriots and pioneers,” she continued. “It’s found in the Olympic athletes and every child who looks at the impossible and says, ‘I can do that.’ That’s the America I know.”

On President Obama, she said “his policies have failed us. We’re not better off than we were four years ago. And no rhetoric, bumper sticker or Hollywood campaign ad can change that.” At this line, the crowd erupted with applause.

Then she spoke directly to Obama: “Mr. President, I’m here to tell you the American people are awake and we’re not buying what you’re selling in 2012,” Love said to more applause.

“This is the America we know because we built it,” said Love.

Watch the entire speech below via Mediaite/C-SPAN:

UPDATE:

After her success at the RNC Tuesday, Mia Love’s Wikipedia page was reportedly edited to call her a “dirty, worthless wh*re” and a “house ni**er.”

    Brilliant strategy! I didn’t even know there existed a black, Mormon, woman, city major, with a name like Mia Love. It’s like seeing a magician, how did they do it? The odds must be ten million to one. Maybe she can draw attention away from the numbskulls that have been hurting Mitt’s chances. Hopefully she will become a media’s darling and speak up some more.

      She will never become the media darling. The Libs and their mainstream media will not let it happen. They will silence her in the same way that they silenced Herman Cain.

      They will never allow a black conservative to have a voice. To allow that would be political suicide for the left. Watch the libs attack her with everything they’ve got.

      She is indeed a very real and very big threat to their desire to keep the African Americans on the Democratic plantation….to make sure they remain enslaved and helpless.

      @ BLAAAAACKWOMAN

      From one black American to another – I’ve been watch Mia Love for a good while now.
      Every time she’s on Fox I listen to her. Her Story is a very inspiring one. I’m very
      proud and hopeful for her. I believe she will & has made a difference.

      She’s no push over – she’s a go’ getter!
      She’s a warm, inviting, attractive,inspiring, intelligent, FIGHTING MACHINE! :)
      Most of all, she’s not fake or phoney – she’s real and committed.
      I admire her much.

    Here’s one of those racist conservatives. Oh wait she’s black! Apparently she likes being free as opposed to being part of the lefts plantation of love which pretty much consist of a junky but luring set front and some cheezy CD sounds of birds singing. Once there, blacks, latinos, other groups stereotyped by race and women are regard and treated as the underclass. The only time you get special attention is when you leave the plantation. That’s when the left calls you racist names, Women are treaated to vulgar names. That’s ok though, the left has a special dispensation from it’s diehard followers who by civil standards are truely racist.

    Some cautionary advise to Mia Love. Don’t set up a conservative concession stand anywhere near a left wing union gathering. They’ll treat you to some real liberal love. They’ll beat the hell out of ya.

    Out of their way? The people of her district elected her to run.

    The Democrats ran a completely unqualified black man for president to try to convince themselves that they were not racist, and now they have ruined the country AND their party. Not because he is black, but because they were in such a hurry to claim they were not racist, they didn’t notice Obama was a marxist.

    How racist are the liberals to actually believe that there are no minorities in the republican party?? It’s like saying all liberals are as much of an idiot as Joe Biden. Maybe he’s the brainiest of the liberals. THAT’s a scary thought.

    Mia Love is running to be my representative. She is energetic, conservative, and gorgeous. I had a premonition during her excellent speech: this woman, Mia Love, will be the first black female president of the United States.

    “Obama is ineligible:
    1. Not a ‘natural born citizen’ required by Constitution, Article 2, Section 1.
    2. Born a British citizen pursuant to 1948 British Nationality Act.
    3. Law enforcement concluded birth certificate is fraudulent.”[1]

    “We hold these truths to be self-evident, … that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, … Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” – Declaration of Independence

    Obama routinely omits ‘Creator’ when speaking of these rights. No ‘Creator’ = no ‘unalienable’ rights! Don’t omit Art 2, Sec 1, when speaking of Obama.

    Beck extols biblical principles and patriotic politics yet hypocritically condones the moral relativism of ignoring the Constitution by tolerating a usurper, possibly preceding similarly subverting our God given rights into mere privileges permitted by politicians.

    “In questions of power…let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” –Thomas Jefferson

    1. VOTE

    2. Demand Congress depose and prosecute Obama, and his co-conspirators! Politicians or judges refusing this duty in violation of their oath of office, must also be regarded as a co-conspirator and similarly deposed or voted out of office.

    3. Boycott mainstream media advertisers; inform them you detest their enabling the worst cover-up in our history!
