Why does the left assume all minorities are Democrat and you know how they all think and feel about everything? Believing that you think and speak for a entire group seems to be one of the most alienating and insulting things one could do.
You nailed it. Their assumption that each group thinks this way or that is, in and of itself, racist. It puzzles me when they feel they have to address each group separately, and I loathe the fact that people are grouped to begin with, and they have a different message for each group. Successful people, like Condi Rice or Herman Cain, are considered outcasts because they have left their assigned "group" and do not share the presumed mindset of the group. As minorities, they should be products of affirmative action or government programs, not doing things the American way by hard work and dedication.
Anyone deserving to be president of the United States of America should stand and address the entire nation as "My fellow Americans." Equal, but not separate!!
