Paul Ryan: Uninsured Americans

Mitt Romney Dept: Ryan took to the stage to introduce himself not just to delegates, but to Americans, many of whom had barely heard of him until Romney surprised pundits earlier this month by tapping the Republican party's fiscal restraint guru, according to CTV. Ryan, whose proposals to reduce the country's massive federal deficit have been met warily by the Americans who are familiar with him, took particular aim in his speech at so-called Obamacare, the president's signature piece of legislation that has brought health insurance to millions of previously uninsured Americans and tAMPA, Fla. -- Paul Ryan wowed the Republican National Convention on Wednesday with a passionate, occasionally snide and often funny speech to delegates after accepting the party's nomination as Mitt Romney's running mate. After four years of getting the run-around, America needs a turnaround, and the man for the job is Gov. Mitt Romney, Ryan said before introducing his wife, Janna, and his three children to the cheering crowd at the Tampa convention centre. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
