Two Republican Presidential Candidates addressed the 35th annual National Right to Life Convention which is being held this week in Kansas City Missouri.
Romney defended his conversion to the pro-life position. To quote from the June 15 th Kansas City Star: : "One of the front-runners for the Republican presidential nomination told a crowd of anti-abortion activists today that his previous pro-choice position was a mistake.
“I was wrong,” former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney told a crowd of several hundred at the National Right to Life Conference meeting at the Hyatt Regency Crown Center."
Video clips of Romney's comments and Senator Sam Brownback's views on right to life issues and immigration are included with the article. Candidates Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter also attended the NRLC Convention.
