Mitt Romney is not backing down from his previous statement that, if elected president, he would veto the DREAM Act if passed through Congress.

When approached by Lucy, an undocumented young person demanding to know why he would not support her dream, he responded: “Because if someone comes here illegally…” She cut him off to explain that she came here legally, and currently has a 4.0 GPA, he replied “That’s wonderful,” before she was pushed back and Romney moved on.

The whole scene ended with supporters in the crowd booing Lucy and one man yelling “Go back to Mexico!” She turned around and replied, “I’m not Mexican, I’m Peruvian.” The group of DREAMers chanted “Veto Romney!” as his car pulled away.
