Would that mean that Mitt is not a natural citizen, if not born to two US citizens. I've heard birthers put forward that misinterpretation of the constitution a few too many times.

Mitt Romney! America's first "Anchor Baby" candidate for President!

Obama should ask to see his birth certificate - just to point out where his father was born.

I think it deserves a serious response and not a "both sides do it" quip.

“Throughout this campaign, Governor Romney has embraced the most strident voices in his party instead of standing up to them. It’s one thing to give the stage in Tampa to Donald Trump, Sheriff Arpaio, and Kris Kobach. But Governor Romney’s decision to directly enlist himself in the birther movement should give pause to any rational voter across America.”

His professional handlers must be nearly suicidal.

"Good job, Boss. By cracking wise about the birth certificate, you just reminded everyone about the ten years of tax returns THAT WE'RE HOPING EVERYONE WILL FUCKING FORGET!!!"

Just shut the hell up and shake hands....

of how his comments might be perceived? No sense of empathy or awareness for how others might feel? He's not even fit to be a dog catcher, much less, the POTUS!

As others keep asking, why is Mitt running? He certainly doesn't care about people!

Its like he's from another planet or something, no one can relate to him and it goes both ways. One of the oddest rape-ublican candidates ever.
