"Some people who don't vote for me choose not to vote for me because I am black." This also may or may not be true (although in this case it is true). However, it is not a generalization at all, as it clearly distinguishes between similarly situated groups of people. If it is not based on a generalization, it also isn't racist, as racism is based on generalizations about groups of people based on race. All that beside the point of course, because it is clearly true.
Can't see the difference?

What I see is you failed to define your personal variation of "racism/racist".

By the way, that was sarcasm (don't know how bright you are yet, so I wanted to make sure you got the memo). |
Thanks for the hint. I think it was Twain who said something akin to "Believe nothing you read/hear, and only half of what you see."

Oh, he wasn't being sarcastic.
