Even if it was, the reporter was wrong, as Mitt is clearly not channeling his inner Klansman, BUT if it was used in that conitation, maybe Mitt's slogan writers should do some more research, rather than have to backtrack and say he meant 'Keep America, America'
Yes, it was used by the Klan and other hate groups in the early part of the last century.
