I happen to be born there as well, he's not a Latino, Mexican, Catholic, culturally raised man. His father was born in Mexico cause they fled there. That's the only reason that Mittens can even let himself to use my people and country as ANY sort of reference. We may be simple folk, the folk who do jobs no one wants but we ain't stupid. He's an arrogant twit even to think that I'd be swooned by his ignorant references.
Phew I had to get that out:\

I posted something similar on Facebook after I heard he was running an ad where his son (?) does the ad in Spanish, to "reach the Latino vote". My reaction was: Are you freakin' kidding me??? His family FLED to Mexico to avoid persecution for practicing polygamy which is illegal in the U.S.! That hardly qualifies them as "Mexicans". To add insult to injury, look at his stance on immigration!! To say he sympathizes because his family are/were immigrants is bullshit.
