Have you seen video of Romney saying he'll fight poverty?

January 17, 2015 11:50 AM

Apparently Mitt Romney's sounding out running again in 2016, and he's testing a platform where he says he'll address poverty and income equality. I can find lots of text, and other video from the Republican event, but I can't find remarks on poverty in particular caught on video. Does anyone have a go-to repository for finding political/news video like this?

I have a very simple memetic thing I want to do with this.

Best answer: Could this be it? Haven't watched it but based on news reports it seems to be filmed at the same time/place he supposedly made the remarks.

Yes, it looks like it... the transcript is also on the same page.

Response by poster: Ahh thanks, gang -- sorry I was being so thick, I think I was convinced not to look further down the C-SPAN rabbit hole when it looked like their YouTube version of that event had been taken down. Herp derp.
