On Saturday, Mitt Romney running mate Paul Ryan took to the podium to not only introduce himself to American voters, but provide a contrast between Romney and President Barack Obama.

After noting his work with both parties, Ryan vowed, along with Romney to turn “ideas into actions and action into solutions.”

“I am committed in heart and mind to putting that experience to work in a Romney administration,” he said. “This is a crucial moment in the life of our nation. It is absolutely vital that we select the right man to lead America back to prosperity and greatness. That man is sitting right next to me. His name is Mitt Romney.”
