No one’s ever asked to see my birth certificate. They know that this is the place where we were born and raised.

Mitt Romney jokes at a campaign stop in Michigan. (via theatlantic)

I usually ignore the whole “LOL Romney is out of touch” commentary because some examples are stretches— but this? This says it all, really.

I’m grateful that not every Republican subscribes to the “Us versus The Other” gameplan that has been employed ever since Obama began campaigning for the 2008 election— because it’s a dangerous game that activates and approves a very dangerous mentality in people… but enough people do subscribe to make me concerned.

I don’t know where to begin. It makes me uncomfortable.
