Romney booed at NAACP convention for promising to 'kill' Obama's healthcare law | Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has
been booed at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)
conference for promising to 'kill' Barack Obama's signature healthcare law. "I
will kill every expensive and unnecessary programme I can find, and that includes
Obamacare," Romney said at the annual convention in Houston , Texas . According
to the BBC, Romney was also jeered when he said that he would be a better president
for African Americans. Despite Romney's frosty reception at the NAACP, he also
received some applause for promising to improve the economy. He said: "If equal
opportunity in America were an accomplished fact, then a chronically bad economy
would be equally bad for everyone. Instead, it's worse for African Americans in
almost every way." Meanwhile, Republican lawmakers have planned another vote to
repeal the healthcare law.
