How is Romney not a Latino?

first i was gonna say, "well that looks like a credible source" but apparently (yes, this is from wikipedia, not that credible either)
Romney was born to American parents living in the Mormon colonies in Mexico; events during the Mexican Revolution forced his family to flee back to the United States when he was a child. The family lived in several states and ended up in Salt Lake City, Utah, where they struggled during theGreat Depression.

so if i'm understanding this, Mitt's Father was born to American family in Mexico. So.. interesting, i don't know.
 
Better question, why would it matter either way?

The Romneys went to Mexico to practice polygamy. (I read it in Rolling Stone, its gotta be true)
 
I wouldn't appreciate it if Mitt Romney tried to market himself as a Mexican because culturally I don't consider him Mexican. Mexican culture tends to be group focused with less value being placed on the individual. The result of this type of culture is a greater social support structure but the opportunity cost is less individuality. His philosophy gives the individual more freedom but less support from society. So in that way his beliefs don't coincide with the majority of Latino's. Also I watched his mom speak and yeah... they're not beaners.
 
I would still never vote for his retarded ass. He's too out of touch. Nobody is gonna vote for him. Obama is going to win the shit is rigged yo.
 
The real question is if someone is "considered" or seen as white or Caucasian with a traditional upper middle class or wealthy upbringing in a typically "white" family, when they have Hispanic roots in their ancestry, would it be considered racist for them not to acknowledge their heritage probably because they have no personal connection to it or maybe because they've been distanced or segregated from it or would it be a matter or pride or merely opportunistic for them to talk about it and capitalize on it for political benefit when speaking with the overly generalized and stereotyped Hispanic community? Either way, isn't someone going to find something to criticize?

How many wives did George have anyways?

personally I don't care how culturally Mexican he is, I cared about how much Mexican blood he had because I thought it would be funny if he was an even bigger hypocrite than he already is.
 
I think we should see his birth certificate. What is his immigration status? Has his visa run out? Is he taking an American's job away?
Xucking dick.
