Romney Ignores Question About Trayvon Martin

Sam Youngman was on the trail for Reuters in Illinois Tuesday, where he reported Mitt Romney declined to answer a question about Trayvon Martin, whose case recently sparked an FBI investigation in Florida.

Youngman tweeted:

"Questions Romney ignored: Trayvon Martin and Ryan plan's cutting pell grants

I asked Romney abt Ryan budget plan. He answered similar to stmt. Ignored my q abt Trayvon Martin and [AP reporter] Steve Peoples q abt cutting pell."

I predict him doing yet another "Who Let The Dogs Out" pander as an attempt to court Black voters.
