"SNIP....................
Mitt Romneys running mate is pushing back on criticism that the 2012 GOP presidential nominee can be an effective spokesman against poverty.
I know who Mitt Romney is. I know whats in his heart. I know what he really feels and believes in the man, in the family, said Rep. Paul Ryan, during an interview Wednesday on MSNBCs Morning Joe.
And this is a man who is deeply concerned about those who are less fortunate, Ryan continued. This is a guy who really does want to see everybody in this country reach their potential.
Romney, who is considering a third White House bid, hinted that he would make fighting poverty a central tenet of a 2016 campaign. In remarks to the Republican National Committee, Romney noted income inequality has gotten worse under President Obama and said Republican principles would break the cycle of poverty.

His main concern is how he can make a profit from them.
