Or a sexist, if Hillary is the Democrat Presidential Nominee. Because when you see a black or a woman you tend to categorize this person by race or gender.
Nicholas Kristof takes an early shot in that bit of overheated, nonsensical rhetoric, implying that a vote
not cast for Obama or Hillary by white men, is
a sign of racism, albiet unconscious.
My favorite bit of the psychological "studies" cited by Mr. Kristof is this, "Most whites and
many blacks are more quick to shoot blacks, no matter how egalitarian they profess to be."
(emphasis added)
That latter fact seems to be lost on Kristof, and others of his ilk, who think psuedo-intellectual psychology "studies" have anything of value to say about reality.
