WASHINGTON -- Former Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, an adviser to former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney on Latino outreach, said Sunday the candidate's failure with those voters was due to hardliners in the Republican party who were "scaring the heck out of them."

"The Hispanics I know were scared of the Republican party," he said on CNN's "State of the Union" in a blunt assessment of Romney's loss. "I think it has to do with our incredibly ridiculous primary process where we force people to say outrageous things, they get nominated, and they have to come back."

The Hispanic Experience - Stolen Birthright

Sooooo...the Spanish stole a bunch of land from the Aztecs and Incans, slaughtering untold millions of Indians in the process, and then we stole some of that from the Spanish.

And that makes us the only bad guys in the picture, eh?
