No, lets have a conversation about character and the values that Americans are expected to hold and support. This like personal responsibility, respecting the law, not stealing, or murdering, or robbing, or raping or attacking others.

Lets start with that conversation before we move on to other things like working for a living, supporting your family, getting an education to better yourself, protecting others and setting an example for your friends and family.

After that, we can move on to things that really don’t matter like the color of a person’s skin.

. . . or using tax revenue to buy votes while promoting the destruction of personal responsibility.

. . . and we can best forget about things that don’t matter by actually enforcing the Civil Rights Act of 1964 - which was written to be color blind on its face, but (precisely as its opponents predicted, and as Hubert Humphrey said he would “eat my hat” if it eventuated) was from its inception enforced without the blindfold on Justice.
All it would take - and SCOTUS had the opportunity in hand with a Connecticut firefighter’s case early in Obama’s tenure, and dropped the ball - would be for SCOTUS to stipulate that there can be no discriminatition against anyone on the basis that they don’t look like sons of the POTUS. And no favoritism on the basis that some people do.
