Best Answer

No. His father, George Romney, was the son of a carpenter/farmer, which makes

him squarely working-class, despite the fact that the father made his fortune in

the auto industry. Ironically, although Romney reputedly does not care about the "very poor," his grandfather and the family had to live on relief after they returned to the U.S. from Mexico. Thus, any remarks about Romney's "patrician" background are absolutely erroneous. He and his family fall into the category of "nouveau riche."
