Related: About this forumHillary Clinton Obliterates Jeb Bush For His Defense Of Hateful “Anchor Babies” slur
The Hillary Clinton campaign came down hard on Jeb Bush after the Republican defended the use of the slur anchor babies.
Hillary For America Latino Outreach Director, Lorella Praeli, pulled no punches in a statement:
During a press conference today, Jeb Bush tried to outdo Donald Trump and other Republican presidential candidates by doubling down on the hateful term anchor baby when referring to the U.S. born children of immigrants.

Its a disgrace to see these candidates attack a group of American citizens who not only have the same rights as everybody else in this country but also represent the very values this country was built on.
If Republicans continue to wonder how to label these children, Hillary has already made it clear to them: They are not anchor babies. They are babies. They are our neighbors. They are our families. They are part of our communities. They are American citizens. Period.

As the late, great Ann Richards said "he can't help it, he was born with a silver foot in his mouth." Just let him keep talking.
