Not a huge Bond fan; not sure if I have ever seen a Bond flick in full.
Has it been established in the films that Bond is white? And are these movies continuations from the previous ones, or are they all stand alone films?
If they are stand alone films, then I have no issue with casting a non-white actor. Same thing for remakes. If it's a remake, then they can remake it however they want to, using different races for the actors.
But I kind of have an issue with changing the character (whatever race the person is) after it's already been established.
Not so much a race issue, but a character issue. Like if they made another Harry Potter and they hire Channing Tatum as Harry. That would bother me. Channing doesn't fit my idea of what Harry should be. Well, I guess Harry could be all grown up and have joined a gym, but, to me, Harry is kind of nerdy, thin build; just like he was portrayed in the movies.
Not sure if I got my point across or just offended everyone (LOL). Have at it 
Edited:
Another example: I wouldn't want to see anyone other than a black man play Jules Winnfield if they did a sequel to Pulp Fiction. Although not really sure if it was established if Winnfield had black roots or not.
Again, not sure if anything I just said makes sense.
