George Romney was Governor of Michigan and was an Anglo-Saxon and son of American parents. Being born in Mexico did not divest him of his essentially American character. He was even eligible to run for POTUS and did. He could not do that and simply be Mexican.

Gonzalo Curiel, on the other hand, is the son of real Mexicans. He fits the bill - Spanish surname, mestizo phenotype, connections to groups with Mexican nationalist tendencies. Indeed, one of the founders of this lawyers' group he's with bragged about Hispanics taking over California.

George Romney wasn't even Hispanic at all.

George Romney is just as Mexican as the Mexican children born to US citizen and Mx citizen parents. Mitt romeny is the most mexican one in politics right now, all mexicans on getting citizenship forget where they came from, forget who they are, and start cucking out. It doesn't matter how anglo saxon he is, being american does not equate being anglo saxon. George is a mexican, and that makes his son mitt a mexican.

Being Anglo-Saxon, or WASP, has traditionally been at the cultural center of what it has meant to be an American in the US and the mainstream American culture that immigrants were expected to assimilate into. We speak English, after all. Mormonism was basically an Anglo-Saxon deviation from American Protestant culture.

This was the cultural mosaic that produced the Romneys.

Or if that commentary on American cultural history and reality doesn't suffice perhaps we can at least acknowledge that being the quintessence of America doesn't mesh too well with being a son of Mexican immigrants who belongs to a group founded by a guy who wanted Hispanics to take over California and taunted whites that if they didn't like it they could 'go back' to Europe. How is that for forgetting where they came from? LOL.
