Martin Luther King Jr. And The Romneys

Mitt Romney's roots in civil rights issues run deep. His father marched for civil rights, and communicated with Dr. Martin Luther King. Although George Romney, the former Michigan Governor and HUD Secretary, never met Dr. King, his wife Lenore did on at least one occasion.
