Romney isn’t running for Congress.

As President, why/how would/could he issue an order to enforce the Law as written ? He takes an oath, as Obama did, to enforce the Laws of the USA if elected president, it would be redundant for him to say he is for the law as written. As president he swears to do exactly that.

If Romney was running for Congress he could declare what his vote might be on a theoretical bill, but he’s running for President.

So are you saying he should not say it is unfair for illegals to step in front of those who have applied legally for citizenship and still waiting?

He should not tell obama he is making it harder for legal US citizens to get a job as now they will have to compete with illegals for precious jobs?

How about it's the president's job to follow the laws of the land or that the president should worry about securing the borders and not his reelection.

Romney is a politician and not a statesman.

He was asked if he would reverse Obama’s “Executive Order”.
No laws or congress involved whatsoever.

It’s a legit question. It may prove to be a good strategy to ignore it now and focus on the economy but at some point in the future he will need to answer it.
