Romney to pledge to fix troubled US immigration system
US Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will pledge to Hispanics on Monday that if elected he will fix the troubled US immigration system in an appeal to a rising voter bloc that overwhelmingly favours Democratic President Barack Obama.
Mitt Romney, who courted conservative Republican primary voters with hard-line opposition to illegal immigration, took a first step Thursday toward trying to soften his image among skeptical Hispanic voters -- pledging to speak in a ``civil and resolute manner'' and that he would loosen some restrictions on the flow of legal foreign workers.
