3. They can't stand him

You listen to them speak and it's an echo chamber of accusations Rush et al have been throwing at him ever since he took office: he was nothing more than a community organizer, he doesn't know how business works, he was born in Kenya, he is narcissistic and aloof, he wants to ruin the country, he's ultraliberal yadda yadda yadda blah blah blah. I've never heard them say it's because he's black but the inference is there, it need not be spoken. Never EVER do I hear them bring up Bush, but I do hear plenty of National Enquirer type gossip (he dissed Clinton once at the WH, Michelle cruelly dangled some pastries in front of Oprah without offering her any, trash like that). Note that these are among rural white people in Central Texas, but I have heard it here every now and again here among the white rednecks in South Texas (all three of them).
