Islam is not a race. Kenyan is not a race. Being born outside of the USA is not a race. He's not like us is not a race. He doesn't share our values etc... is not a race.
If Obama was a white guy named Steve this strategy wouldn't take. It's amazing though how far this scare tactic has went...with no evidence it's almost to the point of being mainstream in some circles.

Being a white guy is a race, and as such, it would take hold as a tactic in the "black community," in the "Hispanic community," etc... And the tactic, even more powerful, because it would take hold not only in those communities but in most others, is to call him a racist. The proof being that he is a white guy named Steve.
And he's a conservative.
