Mitt Romney on His Father and Martin Luther King Jr.
So it was “figurative”…got it…
Why then does this Romney staffer later argue then that it actually happened?
Sounds like you need to get your team on one page.
Had George Romney ever marched with Martin Luther King Jr., it almost certainly would have been documented. From the mid-’50s through 1962, Romney was one of the country’s most prominent business leaders — for him to travel South for a civil-rights march would have been remarkable. From January 1963 on, as governor of Michigan and a presumed Presidential candidate, Romney was one of the most visible political figures in the country.
A spokesperson for Mitt Romney now tells the Phoenix that George W. Romney and Martin Luther King Jr. marched together in June, 1963 — although possibly not on the same day or in the same city.
“Romney similarly backtracked after telling a national television audience Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that “I received the endorsement of the NRA” in 2002 while running for governor of Massachusetts.
The gun rights group did not endorse either candidate, and gave a higher issues rating to his Democratic opponent.”
Why were you registered as an Independent in the 90s when you claimed that you were always a Republican?
If the Republican Party was so important to you, why were you not a part of it?
Romney: “I was a Republican through and through. My dad ran for President. I was in the Republican club in college. I am a Republican and always have been.“
