I asked why he thought this. He said because most of the US is racist. That's why more people voted for him. I then asked him would if he thought the US is made up of mostly white or black. He said white and I agreed. I then proceeded to tell him that in 2008 and 2012 Obama won the Electoral vote and Popular vote. Asked him was that racist? Didn't have an answer.
Race is an issue in this country but it is learned behavior.

Ask him about the Latino voter turnout? He smoked Romney in Arizona with Latinos 31% to 25%.

Nah. It's a moot point. We suffered for 8 years of the village idiot and the last 5 days since election have been glorious for me. Listening to the people who wanted a continuation of Obama melt has been well wonderful. MAGA

Really? So if aliens suddenly landed in the US they wouldn't observe a difference between how the average white person and the average black person behaves?

They would if they went to a horror movie.

Going to a horror movie with black people greatly adds to the experience.

Wow! You should have asked him if his assertion was inclusive of self-assessment.

Then if you want to really rock his world, show him this:

Most people are racist (on all sides). Does that mean all racists want to genocide everyone else? No. Does it mean that some people don't like being squeezed out of their own country by ungrateful third-world immigrants? Yes. Did this have something to do with Trump's election? Yes.

The liberal media is right-on about this -- race was a factor in the election. Not the only factor, but it was a factor.

Either you haven't a clue as to what that term entails, or you know painfully little about people

You need to explain to him the difference between being racist and being ethnocentric. A lot of the idiots keep harping on Trump being racist, but that's not even an accurate thing to label him using the commentary that usually comes along with it.

And I really wouldn't call him ethnocentric either. But if we're going to tag him, let's at least keep it accurate.

That's because the black dude always gets killed first.
