Strange, Strange World: Romney Video

I saw this video at the end of an article on the Colorlines website about the Romney's housekeepers. She is seen in the video for about 2 seconds and the article is about why she is not introduced. Apparently, there has been some articles about what they pay there housekeepers in the past. I don't really follow politics so have no idea this was going on. She is in the video for like 2 seconds. If it was me I would probably rather not be mentioned in their strange "humanizing" video. The video just jumps from one topic to another, most of the times not explaining the background of different events. The first part of the video jumps from fireworks and interviews with Olympic athletes to the September 11 to the Salt Lake City Olympics. It made vague references to his involvement with the Olympics which I didn't know anything about and truthfully was to disinterested to look into it more. A friend explained his involvement when I mentioned the strange video to her and it even interested me even less. The video spends 10 minutes jumping from one thing to another trying to highlight how he is going to save America I guess. It just seemed to me like Mitt Romney propaganda. It is 10 minutes of my life I will never get back.
