Rosie Perez sets Romney straight

Oscar-nominated actress Rosie Perez has teamed up with actually.org to set Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney straight.

Romney was secretly taped in May at a Florida fundraising dinner joking that if he were Latino, he would have a better shot at winning the election.

Perez sarcastically imagines what advantages Romney would be privileged with if he were Latino, then goes even further. “What if you were just a little bit gay, Mitt? Think of all the advantages that would provide. No, wait for it, what if you had a vagina?”

Perez closes out on a serious tone. Watch the video below.
