...but that's not what anyone's saying.
Yes, that would obviously be racist. Most of the most racist shit that's gone down over the centuries has been to "civilize" people of color and "improve" their condition.
But ROMNEY is the one who made this about race, by saying that the black NAACP crowd "wants free stuff". the policies in place or supported by the administration are overwhelmingly not racially, but rather economically, and in the case of things like affirmative action, the effort is made to counteract existing racial bias in hiring decisions.
