Romney Darkens Skin Color to Appear More Hispanic for Univision Interview?

It's not going unnoticed that in a September 19th interview on Univision (which has the largest reach of news programming to Latino audiences in the United States), Mitt Romney had his face darkened to appear, well, more Hispanic. As a sharp eye on Democratic Underground noted and showed, there is simply no disputing it if you look at Romney's face while on Univision as compared to his other campaign photos and television appearances.

The cheesy attempt to subliminally try to make Romney appear more Latino, instead of a pale Mormon, was blatantly evident in a surprisingly critical article of the interview in the right wing Washington Times (although it should be disclosed that the commentary was from a liberal blogger). Just check out the Associated Press photos by clicking here.

As far as proof of Romney man tanning it up to try to appear more like "one of them," just look at his wan hands as compared to his face in the YouTube video of the television program. Catch the white skin in contrast to the heavy pancake makeup on his face as you watch the interview. (The video is posted at the end of this commentary.)

If you actually listen to the interview, Romney is doggedly challenged on his Latino immigration flip flops by Univision journalist Maria Elena Salinas. Salinas and co-interviewer Jorge Ramos look lighter in skin tone than the heavily darkened Romney.

You have to wonder how much the Romney campaign is in freefall when it's candidate imitates Al Jolson singing "Mammy" in black face (although with a brown instead of black face) in order to sway Hispanic voters.

5 Ways ‘I Wish I Was Mexican’ Mitt Reveals Contempt for Brown and Black People

1. Latinos get all the breaks. Early in his remarks to the Boca burghers, Romney discusses his "heritage:"

My dad, as you probably know, was the governor of Michigan and was the head of a car company. But he was born in Mexico… and had he been born of, uh, Mexican parents, I'd have a better shot at winning this. But he was unfortunately born to Americans living in Mexico. He lived there for a number of years. I mean, I say that jokingly, but it would be helpful to be Latino.

Because, you know, there have been so many Latino U.S. presidents.

Mitt's Mexican dream has given rise to all manner of hilarity on late-night shows and in the Twitterverse, where the newly hatched @MexicanMitt [9]("I am the Juan Percent!") is presently holding court.

Viewed in the context of his later comments about Obama voters as being freeloaders, Romney's rationale for wanting to be Latino seems to be that all those moocheros would totally vote for a guy just because he looks like them, as would, presumably, all those other dependency-addicted Americans, since a Latino prez, like a black one, is, in his view, emblematic of the dependency culture. It's a novel variation on the old producerist [10] trope that dates back to the pre-Civil War Jacksonian age, and was used as a rationale for maintaining slavery.

Poor Mitt. It's tough to be a rich, white guy these days.

2. Black people want free stuff. In July, Romney made an appearance before the NAACP's annual convention, declaring himself to be the best presidential candidate "for African American families." Then, in an apparent bid to collect television footage of black people booing him, he declared his intention to "repeal Obamacare."

At a fundraiser later that night, according to a pool report [11], Romney responded to a question about his reception at the civil rights group's gathering:

I hope people understand this, your friends who like Obamacare, you remind them of this: If they want more stuff from government, tell them to go vote for the other guy -- more free stuff. But don't forget nothing is really free.

3. Arabs love war -- and are poor because of their inferior culture. In the video secretly shot at the Boca fundraiser, Romney offers a new twist on the Middle East peace process, basically saying the best approach is to kick the can down the road. Why? Because, Romney says, "the Palestinians have no interest whatsoever in establishing peace." That's right -- none of them. (This assumption, by the way, flies in the face of public polling data [12] in the occupied territories.)

Add to that statement Romney's assertion [13] before a group in Israel that "culture" is the reason for the wealth disparity between Israel and the Palestinian territories, and you have Romney painting Palestinian Arabs according to the racist "ghetto thug" stereotypes used against blacks in the U.S.

Romney's Israel remarks, as reported by TPM's Benjy Sarlin [14] in July:

As you come here and you see the GDP per capita, for instance, in Israel which is about $21,000 dollars, and compare that with the GDP per capita just across the areas managed by the Palestinian Authority, which is more like $10,000 per capita*, you notice such a dramatically stark difference in economic vitality."

"Culture makes all the difference," Romney said. "And as I come here and I look out over this city and consider the accomplishments of the people of this nation, I recognize the power of at least culture and a few other things." Among them, he cited "the hand of providence."

4. Falsely painting black president as promoter of work-free welfare payments. Having yet to close the deal with the Republican base, Romney set out in August to provide right-wingers with a false narrative about President Barack Obama that would vindicate the racist biases of the right, especially the notion that Obama favors blacks over whites, based around the false assumption of the average welfare recipient as black, and the lie that the Obama sought to remove the work requirements from federal welfare payments.

In a series of ads, the Romney campaign mischaracterized waivers granted to several states as the undoing of welfare reform when, in fact, the waivers were granted in order to allow the states to try new methods to increase the employment numbers of welfare recipients.

5. Another twist on the "lazy Negro" theme. As I reported [7] in July:

At the end of May, the Romney campaign rolled out a new campaign based around the theme, "Obama Isn't Working." It was a neat little double entendre, with a surface-level meaning, if one read it as a grammatically tortured kind of shorthand, that Obama's policies aren't working, while its grammatically correct meaning implied that the African American president is, well, shiftless [15] -- a notion that is a persistent racial stereotype of American black people.

All this criticism of Romney's tan is just a big fucking smoke screen to cover the fact that the univision anchors smoked Obama's ass with their pointed questions when it was his turn..he is so used to the US media giving him a pass that his responses were hilarious. It's a shame we have to depend on Mexican journalists to act like real journalists.

Its too damn long to cut and paste. His favorite way to duck interviews is to not address the question and just talk and talk and talk about other shit until they run out of time.

Romney Bussed in Supporters to Rig Univision Event, Threw "Tantrum" Backstage

the Romney camp strongarmed the network into allowing them to bus in activists.

after exhausting the few conservative groups on campus, the Romney camp realized there weren't enough sympathetic students to fill the stands on their night — so they told the network and university that if they weren't given an exemption to the students-only rule, they might have to "reschedule."

Romney's team was allowed to bus in rowdy activists from around southern Florida in order to fill the extra seats at their town hall.

While introducing Romney at the top of the broadcast, Salinas's co-anchor, Jorge Ramos, noted that the Republican candidate had agreed to give the network 35 minutes, and that Obama had agreed to a full hour the next night. Ramos then invited the audience to welcome Romney to the stage — but the candidate didn't materialize.

"It was a very awkward moment, believe me," Salinas said.

Apparently, Romney took issue with the anchors beginning the broadcast that way, said Salinas, and he refused to go on stage until they re-taped the introduction. (One Republican present at the taping said Romney "threw a tantrum.")
