SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"The American people voted for action, not politics as usual. You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours, and in that spirit I've invited leaders of both parties to the White House next week so we can start to build consensus around the challenges that we can only solve together.\"\u003cbr/\u003eOn October 3rd 2012 US President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney clashed over plans for taxes and creating jobs as they shared the stage for the first time in a high-stakes debate with the power to reshape the race for the White House.\u003cbr/\u003eStill, the race remains tight and the three debates In October give Romney an opportunity to shift the momentum, taking on Obama before a television audience of (m) millions.\u003cbr/\u003eThe debate began on a friendly note. \u003cbr/\u003eThe two rivals clasped hands and smiled as they strode onto the debate stage at the University of Denver, then waved to the audience before taking their places behind identical podiums. \u003cbr/\u003eThey faced questions from moderator Jim Lehrer of PBS (Public Broadcasting Service).\u003cbr/\u003eThe economy dominated the evening, as it has the race for the White House all year. \u003cbr/\u003eRomney said that the path that the country has taken is \"unsuccessful\", adding that he is planning to \"restore the vitality that gets America working again\". \u003cbr/\u003eRomney and fellow Republicans see the federal government as too big, taxing Americans excessively, running up deficits and hindering job creation through unnecessary regulations. \u003cbr/\u003eObama said his opponent's plan to reduce all tax rates by 20 percent would cost 5 (t) trillion US dollars and benefit the wealthy at the expense of middle income taxpayers.\u003cbr/\u003eObama and his fellow Democrats see government as a potential force for good, providing the infrastructure and education needed in a dynamic economy and giving even poor Americans the opportunity to succeed.\u003cbr/\u003eThe showdown was critical for Romney, a former Massachusetts governor. \u003cbr/\u003eWith five weeks to go before the election, polls show Obama leading in the most important states in what is a state-by-state vote that decides the presidency. \u003cbr/\u003eThe other two debates are October 16th in New York and October 22nd in Florida.\u003cbr/\u003eThough Election Day is more than a month away, many Americans have already started casting ballots because some states allow early voting. \u003cbr/\u003eThat puts extra pressure on Romney to come up with a showing strong enough to alter the course of the campaign.\u003cbr/\u003eVice President Joe Biden and Romney's running mate, congressman Paul Ryan, have one debate, October 11th in Kentucky.\u003cbr/\u003eOn October 19th 2012 US President Barack Obama made a direct gender pitch in hotly contested Virginia, telling a college crowd that when it comes to issues important to women's health and jobs, Mitt Romney seems to be distancing himself from his policies and his opponent is suffering from a condition called \"Romnesia.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe line of attack and twist on the word \"amnesia\" is the latest jab in the verbal sparring match between the two presidential candidates. \u003cbr/\u003eObama says Romney wants to take the country to policies more suited to the 1950s.\u003cbr/\u003ePortraying his Republican challenger as forgetful of his past positions on contraception, abortion and workplace equality for women and other issues, the president joked that: \"If you come down with a case of Romnesia ... here's the good news: Obamacare covers pre-existing conditions. We can fix you up. We've got a cure.\"\u003cbr/\u003eObama spoke at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, a key battleground in the election.\u003cbr/\u003eOn November 6th 2012 US President Barack Obama visited his election campaign headquarters in Chicago.\u003cbr/\u003eAmid cheers and lengthy applause, the Democratic presidential candidate embraced staff before joining them in making a series of phone calls to thank campaign volunteers for their help.\u003cbr/\u003e\"This is America. Democracy. This is what it's all about,\" he said, as he dialled his first number.\u003cbr/\u003eThe volunteer at the end of the line appeared not to know who was calling, he told her she had been \"really polite to me when you didn't know who I was, which is... that's so nice.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"Snow, sleet, rain, it's not going to stop us,\" Obama told another volunteer.\u003cbr/\u003eThe president later told reporters that \"the great thing about this campaigns is, after all the TV ads and all the fundraising and all the debates and all the electioneering, it comes down to this. One day, and these incredible folks, who are working so hard, making sure people go out to vote.\"\u003cbr/\u003eAfter months of campaigning and billions of dollars spent in the battle for leadership of the world's most powerful country, Obama and his Republican rival Mitt Romney were in a virtual nationwide tie.\u003cbr/\u003eIn surveys of the battleground states, Obama held small advantages in Nevada, Ohio, Iowa and Wisconsin - enough to deliver a second term if they\u003cbr/\u003eheld up, but not so significant that they could withstand an Election Day surge by Romney supporters. \u003cbr/\u003eRomney appears to be performing slightly better than Obama or has pulled even in North Carolina, Virginia and Florida.\u003cbr/\u003eUnder the US system, the winner of the presidential election is not determined by the nationwide popular vote but in state-by-state contests. \u003cbr/\u003eThe candidate who wins a state - with Maine and Nebraska the exceptions - is awarded all of that state's electoral votes, which are apportioned based on representation in Congress.\u003cbr/\u003eAfter a months-long barrage of campaign commercials and candidate speeches, voters in the key US swing state of Ohio finally headed to the ballot box on November 6th for the US Presidential elections.\u003cbr/\u003ePolling stations opened at 6:30 am (1130 GMT) and in places like Franklin County, which includes the city of Columbus, dozens of people arrived early and waited in line - some for up to an hour. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I think that we're going to decide this election, so we need to take the time to make it happen,\" said voter Marjean Lehmann.\u003cbr/\u003eAfter months of campaigning and billions of dollars spent in the battle for leadership of the world's most powerful country Democrat Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney were in a virtual nationwide tie.\u003cbr/\u003eOhio, an industrial state that has gone with the winner of the last 12 presidential elections, has been one of the campaign's main focus with both candidates visiting again on Monday. \u003cbr/\u003eNo Republican has ever won the White House without carrying Ohio.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I think everybody is going to be very glad to see the end of the day today and to not have the ads and not have the mail and everything. We've just been so inundated. I just think people aren't listening anymore,\" said voter Martha Fogle.\u003cbr/\u003eIn surveys of the battleground states, Obama held small advantages in Ohio, Nevada, Iowa and Wisconsin - enough to deliver a second term if they held up, but not so significant that they could withstand an election day surge by Romney supporters. \u003cbr/\u003eRomney appeared to be performing slightly better than Obama or has pulled even in North Carolina, Virginia and Florida.\u003cbr/\u003eRepublican candidate Mitt Romney has cast his ballot in the US presidential election.\u003cbr/\u003eRomney and his wife Ann cast their votes near their Belmont, Massachusetts, home a little before 9 am local time (1400 GMT) on November 6th.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Republican challenger still has Election Day rallies in Ohio and neighbouring Pennsylvania, traditionally Democratic territory where Romney has made a surprise and last-minute push - perhaps to compensate for Obama's expected victory in Ohio.\u003cbr/\u003eUnder the US system, the winner of the presidential election is not determined by the nationwide popular vote but in state-by-state contests. \u003cbr/\u003eThe candidate who wins a state - with Maine and Nebraska the exceptions - is awarded all of that state's electoral votes, which are apportioned based on representation in Congress.\u003cbr/\u003eAsked whom he had voted for, Romney replied, \"I think you know.\"\u003cbr/\u003eRomney will return to Boston later on November 6th for an Election Day reception at the Boston Convention Center.\u003cbr/\u003eBarack Obama won re-election to a second term as US president, beating back a fierce challenge from Republican Mitt Romney. \u003cbr/\u003eObama prevailed despite a weak economy and high unemployment.\u003cbr/\u003eIn his victory speech to jubilant crowds in Chicago, Illinois, re-elected US President Barack Obama congratulated his Republican rival Mitt Romney on a \"hard fought campaign\".\u003cbr/\u003e\"We may have battled fiercely, but it's only because we love this country deeply,\" Obama said.\u003cbr/\u003eThe president rolled to a second term with more than 300 electoral votes.\u003cbr/\u003eObama offered a call for reconciliation after a divisive election, but defended the freewheeling nature of politics and said big decisions \"necessarily stir up passions\".\u003cbr/\u003eObama said he wants to meet with Romney to discuss how they can work together. \u003cbr/\u003eThe president spoke to an ecstatic crowd crammed into the cavernous McCormick Place convention centre in Chicago's lakefront. \u003cbr/\u003eObama appeared about two hours after he was declared the victor in his re-election bid and less than an hour after Romney offered a cordial concession.\u003cbr/\u003eThe president's team had projected confidence for days, but nervously watched the election returns roll in on November 6th. \u003cbr/\u003eEven as the race appeared to be turning in Obama's direction, the staff was narrowly focused on Ohio, the Midwest swing state where Obama and Romney competed fiercely.\u003cbr/\u003eExcited crowds gathered in the streets of various cities to celebrate the President's re-election.\u003cbr/\u003eOutside the White House in Washington DC, the crowd steadily grew throughout the night to celebrate.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I think Romney was good for a certain set of people, I think Obama was good for everyone,\" said one DC resident, Alison Peters.\u003cbr/\u003eTimes Square also became the gathering point for excited Obama supporters in New York City.\u003cbr/\u003eObama won Ohio, Wisconsin, Virginia, Iowa, New Hampshire, Colorado and Nevada, seven of the nine battleground states where the rivals and their allies poured nearly one billion dollars into duelling television commercials. \u003cbr/\u003eOf the nine battleground states, Romney captured only North Carolina. The final swing state - Florida - remained too close to call.\u003cbr/\u003eThe economy was rated the top issue by about 60 percent of voters surveyed as they left polling places. \u003cbr/\u003eBut more said former President George W. Bush bore responsibility for current circumstances than Obama did after nearly four years in office.\u003cbr/\u003eOn November 9th 2012 President Barack Obama said his re-election meant Americans were behind his approach for avoiding a looming \"fiscal cliff\" that threatens a new recession - and that his approach meant the country's wealthiest people would have to pay more in taxes.\u003cbr/\u003eObama's brief public comments - his first since his re-election - set the tone for upcoming tense talks with congressional Republicans on avoiding a combination of deep spending cuts and the expiration of Bush-era tax cuts that automatically take effect January 1st 2013 and total 800 billion US dollars in 2013 alone.\u003cbr/\u003eRepublicans want the approach to avoiding the \"fiscal cliff\" to rely solely on spending cuts, but Obama insisted that higher taxes for the wealthy must be part of the solution.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I'm not going to ask students and seniors and middle class families to pay down the entire deficit while people like me, making over 250-thousand dollars, aren't asked to pay a dime more in taxes\", he said.\u003cbr/\u003eThe president, speaking before a group of middle class Americans in the White House East Room, said he wasn't wedded to every detail of the plans he outlined during the election, adding, \"I'm open to compromise.\" \u003cbr/\u003eBut he offered no indication that he was willing to back down on his insistence that the wealthy pay more, his aides believe Obama has earned a mandate on the issue through his re-election victory. \u003cbr/\u003eObama said the American people voted for action, not politics as usual \"and in that spirit I've invited leaders of both parties to the White House next week so we can start to build consensus around the challenges that we can only solve together\".\u003cbr/\u003eRepublicans, as they did throughout the past four years, say raising tax rates on wealthier Americans is a non-starter. \u003cbr/\u003eBefore Obama made his comments at the White House, House Speaker John Boehner insisted that any deal to avert the so-called fiscal cliff must include lower tax rates, eliminating special interest loopholes and reining in government-benefit programs.\u003cbr/\u003e\"2013 should be the year we begin to solve our debt through tax reform and entitlement reform,\" Boehner said. \u003cbr/\u003eBoehner expressed a degree of optimism about resolving the issues and ensuring that his sometimes reluctant GOP rank and file will back any deal.\u003cbr/\u003eThe speaker declined to discuss specifics on deficit targets or what tax loopholes to eliminate though he cited both corporate and individual.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I don't want to box myself in. I don't want to box anyone else in,\" he said.\u003cbr/\u003eBoehner and Obama have taken the initial steps in high-stakes negotiations over how to deal with expiring Bush-era tax cuts and automatic spending cuts to defence and domestic programs that economists warn could plunge the nation into another recession.\u003cbr/\u003eBoehner, Obama and Senate leaders face a January 2 deadline to reach an agreement or at least come up with a framework to deal with the issue early next year.\u003cbr/\u003eBoehner said he had a brief, cordial conversation with Obama earlier in the week and reiterated that the president needs to lead on the negotiations.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Ohio Republican, reflecting the sentiment of his caucus, said increasing the maximum 35 percent tax rate on high-income earners cannot be part of the deal. \u003cbr/\u003eBoehner did signal that he was open to eliminating loopholes.\u003cbr/\u003eA former ranking member on the House Budget Committee, Republican Bill Frenzel, says there appears to be some possibility of compromise between the White House and Republicans on Capitol Hill judging by comments in recent days.\u003cbr/\u003eBut, he warned, the result of November 6th's election will shape the negotiations.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Because President Obama won the election and because Republicans won or continued their control of the House, it became obvious that there is going to be a fist-fight over deficit reduction, \" Frenzel said.\u003cbr/\u003eWorried that the consequences of the U.S. economy falling off the fiscal cliff are \"so severe,\" Frenzel believes it is unthinkable that no deal will be reached between Republicans and Democrats.\u003cbr/\u003eA lot is at stake. \u003cbr/\u003eA new Congressional Budget Office report on November 8th predicted that the economy would fall into recession if there is a protracted impasse in Washington and the government falls off the fiscal cliff for the entire year. \u003cbr/\u003eFrenzel says the resulting recession is \"something that we can't afford.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThough most Capitol-watchers think that a long deadlock is unlikely, the analysts say such a scenario would cause a spike in the jobless rate to 9.1 percent by next fall. \u003cbr/\u003eSome analysts believe that the fiscal cliff is more like a fiscal slope and that the economy could weather a short-term expiration of the Bush-era tax cuts and that the government could manage a wave of automatic spending cuts for a few weeks. \u003cbr/\u003eBut at a minimum, going over the fiscal cliff would mean delays in filing taxes and obtaining refunds and would rattle financial markets as the economy struggles to recover.\u003cbr/\u003eThe CBO analysis says that the cliff - a combination of automatic tax increases and spending cuts - would cut the deficit by $503 billion by September 2013, but that the fiscal austerity would cause the economy to shrink by 0.5 percent next year and cost millions of jobs.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
