Of course, this is how he will manipulatively court the large Hispanic vote. Remember, it's the VP who might have to step in. Better Biden than Marco Rubio.

This is about as cheesy as Schwarzenegger (GOP) going into a predominately Mexican gym in East LA to shake hands with the local boys, thus fetching votes from a demographic that would/should have never voted for him.

Politicians are all scum buckets.

I saw an Romney ad geared towards Hispanics that brags about his father being born in Mexico.

But that would be a shame that he couldn't be VP based on that techinchality. I like Charlie Christ, but he isn't conservative enough.


Yes, but not enough.

I like Rubio but that's the way it is.

Here is the ad

His son speaks fluent Spanish, in the ad with his tan he could even pass for Hispanic. Mitt Romney's Spanish however is horrendous, should have edited that last part out


País De Inmigrantes - YouTube
