Gary Bauer says Vice Presidential Debates will Showcase competing Visions of America with Paul Ryan pick for the GOP

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Former presidential candidate Gary Bauer commended the choice of Wisconsin Representative Paul Ryan as Mitt Romney's choice for Vice President on the GOP ticket in the fall. "America is ready for a leadership team with vision to restore morning in America," said Bauer.

The chairman of the Campaign for Working Families made the following statement: "I congratulate Paul Ryan and look forward to the policy debates. This is a selection that sends a strong, clear, unambiguous message of a conservative vision for America, from ending the explosive growth of government, reducing the explosive growth of the debt and instead committing to the explosive growth of the American economy. This shows the kind of talented and experienced team Governor Mitt Romney will put together that will work for American exceptionalism.

"Paul Ryan's choice, sadly, shows the limitation of Vice President Biden, and his empty partisan rhetoric. The first vice presidential debate will showcase a vision of America that revolves around either government as the center of American life always seeking more power and control or government that equips American freedom and opportunity."
