A little bit of both, says Romney.<br /><br />Question: Are leaders born or made? <br />Mitt Romney:Probably a bit of both. Some folks have good genes and have some of the skills that are perhaps inherent; but I think most of us develop skills of leadership through experience. You probably have to have the opportunity to actually run something to be a leader; and to have been tested time and time again, I think, to develop the kinds of skills you need to lead something as great as the United States of America.
