Willard Mitt Romney (born March 12, 1947) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 70th Governor of Massachusetts from 2003 to 2007. Following his service as Governor, Romney was the Republican Party's nominee for President of the United States in the 2012 election.
Raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, by his parents George and Lenore Romney, Mitt Romney spent two and a half years in France as a Mormon missionary starting in 1966. He married Ann Davies in 1969, and they have five sons. By 1971, Romney had participated in the political campaigns of both of his parents. In that year, he earned a Bachelor of Arts at Brigham Young and in 1975, a joint Juris Doctor and Master of Business Administration at Harvard. Romney then entered the management consulting industry and in 1977 secured a position at Bain & Company. Later serving as its chief executive officer, he helped lead the company out of financial crisis. In 1984, he cofounded and led the spin-off company Bain Capital, a highly profitable private equity investment firm that became one of the largest of its kind in the nation. Active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Romney served during his business career as the bishop of his ward (head of his local congregation) and then stake president in his home area near Boston. After stepping down from Bain Capital and his local leadership role in the church, he ran as the Republican candidate in the 1994 Massachusetts election for U.S. Senate. Upon losing to longtime incumbent Ted Kennedy, he resumed his position at Bain Capital. Years later, a successful stint as president and CEO of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the 2002 Winter Olympics led to a relaunch of his political career.
The 2012 presidential campaign of Mitt Romney, the 70th Governor of Massachusetts, was formally announced on June 2, 2011 at an event in Stratham, New Hampshire. Having previously run in the 2008 Republican primaries, Mitt Romney's campaign in the 2012 election was his second bid for the Presidency of the United States.
He filed his organization with the Federal Elections Commission as an exploratory committee and announced the organization in a video message on April 11, 2011. He became the party's presumptive nominee with his victory in the Texas primary on May 29, 2012.
On August 11, 2012, in Norfolk, Virginia, Romney announced that his running mate for vice president was Paul Ryan, the U.S. Congressman for Wisconsin's 1st congressional district.
On August 30, 2012, in Tampa, Florida, Romney formally accepted the Republican Party's nomination at the 2012 Republican National Convention.
Romney's campaign came to an end on November 6, 2012, upon defeat by incumbent President Barack Obama.

Republican People’s party (CHP) which is usually credited as the founder of Turkish republic in 1923 was the oldest party in Turkey. But after the party adopted the policy of so-called left of center in 1960s, two groups of MPs broke away from the party. The first group in 1967 founded the Reliance Party. Republican Party was founded by the second group in 1972.
The party was founded on 4 September 1972. The chairman of the Party was Kemal Satır, an ex vice prime minister. But it was a short lived party . On 28 February 1973 it was merged to Nationalistic Reliance Party (aka Reliance Party), which was renamed Republican Reliance Party.

On 8 February 2005, along with eleven smaller parties and movements, Apsny was transformed into the Forum for the National Unity of Abkhazia.

President-elect Trump joined Elon Musk in opposing House Speaker Mike Johnson's proposed bill to keep the government funded. Trump released a statement with Vice-president elect J.D. Vance, writing, "Republicans must get smart and tough. If Democrats threaten to shut down the government unless we give them everything they want, then call their bluff." "This chaos would not be happening if we had a real president. We will in 32 days!" the statement added. The massive 1,500-page bill was on the verge of collapse already, according to the Associated Press. Musk attacked the bill on social media, arguing the 1,547-page document "should not pass." The legislation is designed to avoid a government shutdown and fund the government through March. Subscribe to LiveNOW from FOX! https://www....

Once upon a time, the GOP stood for limited government. But now it stands only for Trump and his authoritarian neofascism. It demands total loyalty to him. The party’s demise is on full display at this week’s Republican National Convention.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) suggested that Democrats will oppose any "clean" federal spending bill, warning that Republicans will "own" any harm that comes from a government shutdown. “House Republicans will now own any harm that is visited upon the American people that results from a government shutdown or worse," Jeffries said. House GOP leaders are searching for a backup plan after an initial bipartisan deal to avoid a partial government shutdown on Friday was buried in an avalanche of conservative opposition.

Raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, by his parents George and Lenore Romney, Mitt Romney spent two and a half years in France as a Mormon missionary starting in 1966. He married Ann Davies in 1969, and they have five sons. By 1971, Romney had participated in the political campaigns of both of his parents. In that year, he earned a Bachelor of Arts at Brigham Young and in 1975, a joint Juris Doctor and Master of Business Administration at Harvard. Romney then entered the management consulting industry and in 1977 secured a position at Bain & Company. Later serving as its chief executive officer, he helped lead the company out of financial crisis. In 1984, he cofounded and led the spin-off company Bain Capital, a highly profitable private equity investment firm that became one of the largest of its kind in the nation. Active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Romney served during his business career as the bishop of his ward (head of his local congregation) and then stake president in his home area near Boston. After stepping down from Bain Capital and his local leadership role in the church, he ran as the Republican candidate in the 1994 Massachusetts election for U.S. Senate. Upon losing to longtime incumbent Ted Kennedy, he resumed his position at Bain Capital. Years later, a successful stint as president and CEO of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the 2002 Winter Olympics led to a relaunch of his political career.
Gayety often found its way into my tower
Night after night it was filled with happy people
Thin happy people
Tall happy people
Short happy people
Old and young
Many races from many places
My tower was filled with nice neighbourly sounds
Phones ringing,knocks on the door
Many conversations competing madly for attention
And the heart warming sound of people laughing out loud
We talked mostly about New York
The concerts we had attended(The humidity)
The plays we had seen(The humidity)
The musicals on Broadway and(The humidity)
We had artists
We had musicians and we had a wonderful waiter,a waiter
named Noah
Noah,Noah,where is Noah
where is Noah here comes Noah now
Empty the astrays
Get out some ice
`Cause we´re having the party and the people are nice
Clear off the table
Order us some chow
