On NBC's Rock Center on January 9, correspondent Mike Taibbi led the broadcast with a report on Mitt Romney's family roots in Mexico. Following the report, host Brian Williams used the story to discuss Mitt Romney's stance on illegal immigration, observing: "And couldn't you make the case the family tree is an aspect of the Dream Act?" Taibbi agreed: "Absolutely. I mean, his father [George Romney] could be the poster boy for the Dream Act."
