Could we at least acknowledge that race is about far more than skin color?
It's about culture and history that are far different. 

Btw, 'disclude' is not a word unless you are George W. Bush.

That sword cuts both ways, Tone. After all, a white supremacist could argue

negative outlook on difference would compel you to DISCLUDE based on that.

Not necessarily. A positive opinion based solely on skin color HAS to have a
flipside to it.....and that flipside is a less-positive opinion based on the
opposite skin color.

"I like Obama more because he's black" can be re-stated as "I would like
Obama less if he was white".
