Obama knocks Romney: Corporations are not people

President Barack Obama launched his reelection campaign in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday by rebuking his presumptive Republican opponent's approach to taxes and the economy.

"We’ve come too far to abandon the change we have fought for these past few years" Obama told a crowd of 14,000 supporters. "We have to move forward."

Obama described his opponent, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, as a "patriotic American" who had "much to be proud of." But the President said Romney had "drawn the wrong lessons" from his experiences as a wealthy investor.

"Somehow, he and his friends in Congress think that the same bad ideas will lead to a different result," Obama said.

The President also mocked Romney for claiming that "."

"I don’t care about how many ways you try to explain it," he said. "Corporations aren’t people. People are people."
