"If you say, name people who are hardworking, seek education, love God, love their families and value freedom, -- it's Hispanic-Americans, just like other Americans," Romney told a crowd at the Republican National Hispanic Assembly's annual convention.

Praising Hispanics as "quintessentially American," the former Massachusetts governor said the nation's immigration policy should help open doors for people with such strong beliefs.

"I want to make sure we continue an open door in immigration that welcomes people who come here with those kinds of values," he said.

This is not flamebait, NOR prejudice. On a POLITICAL level, this BETTER be discussed.


JFK stood up for separation of Church and State. Contrary to conventional spewing, it was NOT Shrub who CRASHED the separation deal, it was Jimmy CARTER. But Shrub took it to town. And now Mittenfurher will run the field. Sad.

5. Talk about being clueless on the campaign trail!
Romney is blowing smoke up their asses and its almost comical that he thinks they don't know it.

6. He's not lying
Romney would be perfectly happy to offer amnesty to all illegal workers, and to bring in the entire population of Central and South America, and anywhere else, so long as it serves to further his agenda, which is the same as that of every Republican: to crush the American worker and to endanger every law we have fought for for the past 150 years that seeks to ensure some kind of decency in the American workplace.
