[edit] Mitt Romney's early life and education

Why the need to remove Mitt's struggle with poverty? Ann spoke about it during a 1994 interview with the Boston Globe. I feel it is an integral part of Mitt's upbringing, and that the American people should know that Mitt has struggled to make ends meet just like the rest of us. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MB24 (talk • contribs) 23:35, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

For your edit, for which the source is an opinion piece. (Reilly, Adam. Romney’s greatest gaffes — so far: He may be the GOP’s new golden boy, but the country doesn’t know Mitt like we do Boston Pheonix. April 21, 2006). It's humorous, though incorrect and disingenuous, to claim Romney had a "brush with poverty," since he held investments that could be sold and was a member of a family of a former president of an auto company. You can state the facts without the point of view attached. Even better, find the original interview to summarize-- Yellowdesk 02:34, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
