There is no standard definition on what would make America a racist nation. Does it take more than systemic racism to make a nation racist. I can't answer that, can you. Accordingly that makes this a gotcha question and both VP Harris and Pres. Biden avoided the trap Scott set nicely. But Scott also stepped into it with his comment about 100 years ago the color of your skin meant one race was made to feel inferior but today it means whites are made to feel they are oppressors. First, I don't know where he came up with that because it is news to me but secondly since he based it on race he is saying we are racist against white people. Who else is saying that? White supremacist's are saying that for one. That is rather strange company for Scott to be in bed with and it makes one wonder why he would do that. Did he really not understand the meaning of the words his speechwriter penned for him to read?
