July 29, 2012 - Mitt Romney told ABC’s David Muir that paying more in taxes than was legally required disqualified a person from being President.

September 21, 2012 - Romney disqualified himself from being President.

The Romney campaign released a statement from Romney’s Trustee, Brad Malt saying:

The Romneys’ generous charitable donation in 2011 would have significantly reduced their tax obligation for the year. The Romneys thus limited their deduction of charitable contributions to conform to the Governor’s statement in August, based upon the January estimate of income, that he paid at least 13% in income taxes in each of the last 10 years.

First clip from leaked Romney fundraiser 

Romney responds to controversial video that leaked where he made comments regarding “the 47% of the country who don’t pay any taxes”

Here’s part of what Romney said:

There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that’s an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what…These are people who pay no income tax.
