Past Headlines About
September 2011
UPDATED: April 11, 2012The 2012 Presidential Campaign is well underway. As it is with most campaigns, many voters know very little about the candidates except what they hear from the candidates and/or their ardent supporters and propaganda machines. However, a candidate's history is usually very revealing, and will help a voter in deciding if the candidate truly stands for what the voter believes in.
Here you will find some past headlines about Rick Santorum. Naturally, as in many cases, some issues are exaggerated by the author of a given article, and you will occasionally see biases in some articles. On the other hand, the official record of a candidate is just that: official. Therefore one must be unbiased and have an open mind when reading what others write.
This list will continue to be updated throughout the 2012 campaign. So check back from time to time to read the latest.
