Obama to Hammer Romney Bain Record With China on Ohio Bus Trip

Obama to Hammer Romney Bain Record With China on Ohio Bus Trip

July 5 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama will tell voters in the battleground state of Ohio today that his administration filed a claim with the World Trade Organization against China, charging it with unfair tariffs on U.S. autos, a welcome message in the U.S. rust belt.
The action comes as Obama begins a two-day campaign bus trip. The “Betting on America” tour, as the Obama campaign has dubbed it, has stops in places whose economies are affected by the auto industry. The label is designed to draw a contrast with presumed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, a former private-equity executive whose business dealings included investments overseas.
Obama also will talk about the health-care law upheld last week by the Supreme Court, said campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki. He will emphasize protections for sick and younger Americans, and describe Romney as flip-flopping on the law’s penalty for those who don’t get insurance coverage.
