Aasif Mandvi, the "brown" correspondent on Daily Show, was out in the field investigating how certain states had responded to the Supreme Court's striking down in June a key provision of the 1965 voting rights act. Mandvi revealed that red states were celebrating the development by adding brand new constitutional restrictive voting laws.

Congressman John Lewis of Georgia told Mandvi that these new laws would endanger African-American voters, saying that they would make it harder for an "average person of color to participate in" the voting process.

Yeltin welcomed the change and thought the voting restrictions were needed. He emphasized that the law was not racist. Mandvi at one point told him the law was not racist and he was not racist, to which Yeltin responded, "I have been called a bigot before."

Laughs follows as Yeltin went on to assert his bigotry, spouting statements such as "When I was young, you didn't call a black a black, you called him a negro."

"I had a picture one time of Obama sitting on a stump as a witch doctor and I posted that on Facebook," he also said, as well as, "Now you have a black person using the term, nigger this and nigger that, and it's okay for them to do it."

Mandvi, intervened and warned Yeltin, "You know that we can hear you, right?" Yeltin concluded his interview by saying that the restrictions were being implemented to "kick the Democrats in the butt."

Buncombe GOP Chairman Henry Mitchell told WRAL called Yeltin's remarks "offensive, uniformed and unacceptable of any member within the Republican Party."
