AA, because then you can put a racist spin on it.

It is about anybody who wants a better life and is not a millionaire. People who want to go to college, or get health care without haggling full time with the insurance companies.

It's about people who want a better life. But you keep making it about race like the memo says. It is much more inflammatory.
