(AFTER VIEWING AND DISCUSSING THE "YES WE CAN" VIDEO)

WILSON: I have no idea who that is. You know, personally, I was offended that it was in black-and-white.

GUTFELD: Really?

BILL SCHULZ (Fox News contributor): I think we're past that, you're right.

WILSON: I was like, what about the Mexican vote? What about the Asian votes? It's just for blacks and whites?

BANDERAS: That's why they didn't vote for him.

GUTFELD: That's true, I was going to get to that. They really - apparently that was the - do minorities hate other minorities? You're a minority.

BANDERAS: Latinos and Asians --

SCHULZ: Half of her.

BANDERAS: Well, because I think it's a -- well, I have something in common with Obama, and I don't even know what the big deal is. He's a Halfrican anyway, so I'm not really quite sure why the Asians and the Hispanics have no -- you know, have a problem with him.

SCHULZ: What does that make you? A Halombian?

BANDERAS: A Halfrilombian. A Halfricanlombian.

GUTFELD: What are you?

SCHULZ: Colombian.

BANDERAS: I'm half Colombian, half American.

SCHULZ: Greg, we all know she's Colombian.

3. Why do you listen to Fox News?
Don't you remember all the smear they have used the past 2 decades?

7. Talk about race-baiting. There were other minorities in that video, they
just conveniently chose to ignore it.
