This whole conversation is the problem with the word "racist", it doesn't mean what people think it means and it becomes a catchall term to replace more appropriate words like "bigot", "prejudiced", and "preference."

You can be a bigot and not be a racist. You can be prejudiced and not be a racist. You can express a preference and NOT BE A RACIST.

Then these same people, who don't understand the very real and extremely significant differences in these words, want to turn around and make their false idea of racism into a thought/hate crime.

I don't like Obama because of his politics, I do not care one bit about his skin color. I dislike Shrillary for the same reason, regardless of her sex. I don't like Sanders for the same reason, regardless of his weirdo "nutty professor" hairdo. I don't like Trump because of his personality but so far I don't disagree with much of his politics. I don't "admire" any of the people in this list because I don't think any of them are worthy of admiration, they're just whores doing what they have to do to make a living.
