So can Mitt use the word immigrant to describe his father?

Not in my opinion, maybe it’s semantics but I can’t see how an American living in another country who returns to the US can be called an “immigrant”.

I choked on this when I heard Willard say it last night in the debate and was surprised Newt didn’t call him on it.

I love the way Romney is trying to portray himself as a Mexican all of a sudden!

The fact that Grampa Romney fled to Mexico one step ahead of the law because of his polygamist cult and that he then brought his children (and, presumably, his 3 wives) back to the US because he didn’t want his children to grow up in Mexico seems to be forgotten.

Romney can claim that, if elected, he would be America’s first Hispanic president. If you have an ancestor born in Mexico you qualify.

If Romney’s father was not born in America does that not bring into question Mitt not being a “Natural Born Citizen”? He may have dual loyalties...Isn’t this the meat of the Obama birther question?
