In other campaign news, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was forced on Wednesday to defend the decisions of his five sons not to join the military. After being questioned at a campaign stop in Iowa, Romney said his sons have made other decisions to help the country. He said, “One of the ways my sons are showing support for our nation is helping me get elected because they think I’d be a great president.” Romney’s five sons range in age from 26 to 37 and have worked as real estate developers, sports marketers and advertising executives. They are now actively campaigning for their father and have a “Five Brothers” blog on Romney’s campaign site.
