Why Voldemort wanted the Potters dead?

Has anyone else read a disturbing little editorial in the National Review
entitled, "Chelsea Clinton, Be Very Afraid", by John Derbyshire?
I'm not saying that Mr. Derbyshire is any Voldemort, but reading
his views on the Clintons made me wonder: Given that Voldemort is
someone whose thinking is not exactly that of a normal rational person, is
it possible that the reason that he wants Harry dead is simply because
he's persuaded that the Potter family are genetically corrupt and
degenerate and that they *all* must be exterminated to save all of
Wizard-kind?
