The President and almost all Democrats support strengthening Social Security, not cutting it. tridim Oct 2013 #6

Does the President go on TV and "call for cuts"? JoePhilly Oct 2013 #28

Does he go on TV and call for SS cuts? As often as he goes on TV to promote his TPP. AnotherMcIntosh Oct 2013 #32
