“My dad, as you probably know, was the governor of Michigan and was the head of a car company. But he was born in Mexico. . . and uh, had he been born of uh, Mexican parents, I’d have a better shot at winning this. . . But he was unfortunately born to Americans living in Mexico. He lived there for a number of years. I mean, I say that jokingly, but it would be helpful to be Latino.”

-Mitt Romney at a recent fundraiser (via Vanity Fair)
