    No, anyone who cares about such a superficial manner is not sensible.

    Pre-Spiro Agnew you might have a legitimate argument. Of all Presidential candidates, the tax returns of one who has made millions with dubious business practices are especially relevant.

    Almost everyone is paying a rate lower than that. The effective rate for individual income taxes for the bottom 95% is 11%.

    martin, try not to be so ego-centric. Your biases are not applicable to everybody.

    Do any of you think that he may have paid that %age on his 2011 taxes b/c maybe, just maybe, he knew he'd release them. And that on all of the other tax returns he paid nothing and that's why he is not releasing those?

    I mean come on....
