Mitt Romney released a new campaign ad a few days ago that shows hundreds of supporters waiting in line to hear Mitt speak, meeting Mitt in line, then finally watching him on stage. Not a non-white face in the house. Then the Romney ad highlights 23 people in particular with cameos. Their races are, in chronological order: white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white.
Seriously, no one at Romney headquarters thought it might make sense to at least find one black, Latino, Asian - heck, even a WASP with a tan? The only person apparently not of European heritage is South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, whose parents are from India (but you wouldn't know that without having googled her name).
