The first 6 years of Bush were awesome. The last two went bad when harry pelosi popped the maxine fwank housing bubble with $150 barrel oil.

Neither Romney, nor Ryan want to eliminate S S. If something isn't done to put it back on financial footing it will go bankrupt. Older people are not stupid. They know something has to be done. In Obamacare Obama, and the Democrats are eliminating $500,000,000,000. billion dollars from Medicare to have money for their poor. Kill the old people, and give to the poor. It is called Obamahood. Hopefully Romney can help create tax paying jobs, so we can recoup some of the money we lost under Obama.

Obama used to be a community organizer, but guess what? Now he's got 3.5 years of being President of the United States under his belt too. Can't wait to see all you crybabies spend another 4 years bemoaning the fact that we have a Democrat as President! HAHAHAHA

The fix for Social security is to:
* Base it on all income, no upper 'cut off.'
* Include all income, not just (ordinary) wage and salary. That is, include all investment and capital income. SS will last into the next two centuries.

Bush tried to fix SS, but the lamesteam media carried harry pelosi's water and torpedoed it.
Bush wanted to raise the ceiling on earned income, but not investment income as you suggest.
He also wanted to raise the age it kicks in, and do means testing for really high income earners.
To offset this large tax increase on the rich, he suggested all participants be allowed to put a small part (10-20%) in a self directed IRA type account that could be invested at a return higher than 1% which is what it earns now (with more risk) on a voluntary basis.
It was a reasonable starting point for negotiations, but an intransigent Congress would rather have the problem to demagogue than solve.

Bush's attempt to destroy Social Security was no attempt to save it.
For example:
"...all participants be allowed to put a small part (10-20%) in a self directed IRA type account ..."
All participants can already put as much as they wish into an IRA. This Bush plan would have only defunded SS. This program is not a savings account, it pays out as is collects in.
Bush knew that, so this truly was a deliberate attempt to end SS. And, when Bush's failure to regulate financial markets crashed the stock market, it would have been a true disaster for all who count on SS fiunded by the .
Means testing was another structural attack on SS. It was the camel's nose iiiiiinto the tent. It is better to pay more, and still collect your check no matter how much you have.
Raising the ceiling, either on earned income, or on all income is the solution. Equalization, equal treatment of all income is most equitable; but not likely this decade. It is an eventual long term solution; before cutting benefits, or releasing the Stock market sharks into Social Security funding.
