In a Tuesday appearance on Mickelson in the Morning, a popular Iowa radio show among conservatives, the former Pennsylvania senator recounted a debate he had had with former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean (D).
“We were asked a question by a student, what’s the greatest virtue of the United States of America? You know what Howard Dean said? Diversity.” Santorum incredulously noted as the host laughed.
“But that’s what they believe!” Santorum continued. He later went on to criticize President Obama for accepting refugees who are persecuted because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
