Poor Harry
Psst: All you Hispanics who were in the audience this week in Nevada when Harry Reid told you that he could not imagine how a person of Hispanic descent could be a Republican. Wanna know a dirty little secret? Click below.

That's right, folks. Back in 1993, old Harry introduced a biil that (in Title X) would have ended citizenship for babies born to people who were not citizens or legal resident aliens. Here's the wording.
“TITLE X—CITIZENSHIP 4 SEC. 1001. BASIS OF CITIZENSHIP CLARIFIED. In the exercise of its powers under section of the Fourteenth Article of Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the Congress has determined and hereby declares that any person born after the date of enactment of this title to a mother who is neither a citizen of the United States nor admitted to the United States as a lawful permanent resident, and which person is a national or citizen of another country of which either of his or her natural parents is a national or citizen, or is entitled upon application to become a national or citizen of such country, shall be considered as born subject to the jurisdiction of that foreign country and not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States within the meaning of section 1 of such Article and shall therefore not be a citizen of the United States or of any State solely by reason of physical presence within the United States at the moment of birth.”
And here is the article by Kerry Picket in the Washington Times who broke the story:

I can hardly wait until the next golden nugget of an "explanation" comes tumbling out of one of Harry's orifices. How about this?
"I can't imagine how any person of Hispanic descent could vote for me."
