I’ve been to some Romney events. They’re pretty damn white.

areasofmyexpertise:

I was skeptical when I read about this on KOS, but when I watched this new video from Romney, I was pretty astonished.

I think (THINK) that we see one African American police officer or firefighter’s head from behind at one point. And the little girl on the tire swing is… brunette, I guess?

But I honestly could not find one non-white person in this video. That’s a surprising choice, and a very creepy end result.

  1:11 on the far left, and 1:28. But, yeah, this is spookily white-washed.
