I wholeheartedly and with prejudice disagree. Consider the grave implication of your position. Ignorance of the plight of the poor is no excuse. You can be wealthy and still understand the struggles the poor must endure and have the desire to help them (i.e. Bill Gates).
Coming from a poor background can be a plus but that alone doesn't give you legitimacy nor does it make you a better leader. Words backed by action makes you a great leader weather you're from a poor or wealth background.
As for Mitt Romney, he has so many flaws besides being rich it isn't funny.
