Citizenship not the reason to get Obama out of White House: Romney
April 14th, 2011 - 2:14 pm ICT by ANI
New York, Apr 14(ANI): Former Massachusetts Governor and potential 2012 GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has ripped the notion that President Barack Obama wasn’t born in the United States.
“The citizenship test has been passed. There are real reasons to get this guy out of office, but his citizenship isn’t the reason why,” the New York Daily News quoted Romney, as saying.
The comments come after several persons, including business magnate Donald Trump and former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, questioned Obama’s citizenship.
Trump, who’s also considering making a bid for the Oval Office, even said that he has sent a team of investigators to Hawaii to get answers.
When asked if he thought Trump was a threat, Romney said: “He’s a new face and a new voice in the process. My view is ‘come on in, the water’s fine. The more the merrier’.” (ANI)
