I'm not denying the racism. I'm saying that without the race issue they would still be doing the same things.

They didn't like Clinton, a nice whiter than white southern boy. To this day they vilify Gore. Remember Carter and the hostage crisis? They will do what ever is necessary to destroy a democratic POTUS. With Obama it's racism. With a woman POTUS it WILL be sexism.
