Romney for President

"President Obama's Measure of Progress" +
  1:12 web video from April 18, 2012.

[Drumbeats] TEXT: August 28, 2008 Denver, Colorado

Obama: You see we Democrats have a very different measure of what constitutes progress in this country.  We measure progress by how many people can find a job that pays the mortgage, whether you can put a little money away at the end of each month so you can someday watch your child receive her college diploma...

TEXT: On September 3, 2012 Barack Obama and the Democrats

Will meet in Charlotte, North Carolina

Here's what you won't hear at the Convention

Obama: We measure progress by how many people can find a job that pays the mortgage...

North Carolina has lost nearly 50,000 jobs since President Obama took office

That's over twice the size of the arena where the Convention will be held

Unemployment rate is 9.9%

In Charlotte unemployment is even higher 10%

In total 450,000 North Carolinians are unemployed

Up 13% since Obama took office

Obama (Feb. 2, 2009 clip): "If I don't have this done in three years, then there's going to be a one-term proposition."

Notes: Very similar to the April 10 video "President Obama Has Failed Florida Workers" even to the same running time, 1:12.  The video hits Obama on unemployment, has text on screen instead of narration, uses a speeded up montage of (Charlotte) scenes, and concludes with the same quote from Obama.
