Verenice Gutierrez picks up on the subtle language of racism every day.
Take the peanut butter sandwich, a seemingly innocent example a teacher used in a lesson last school year.
What about Somali or Hispanic students, who might not eat sandwiches? says Gutierrez, principal at Harvey Scott K-8 School, a diverse school of 500 students in Northeast Portlands Cully neighborhood.
Another way would be to say: Americans eat peanut butter and jelly, do you have anything like that? Let them tell you. Maybe they eat torta. Or pita.

The fact parents aren't rioting and throwing these principals and teachers out on their butts is why there is a very real chance 0bama will get reelected.
It is not that half the people are on some kind of government program, because plenty of retirees are conservative. It is these loons implementing this crap.

You know, yesterday while I was watching football I ate a bbq chicken sandwich.
It was delicious. But it tasted of racism.
I always suspected that I was a bigot. And now I know. Because the sandwich told me so.

This silliness will go on no matter who the President is. It’s been going on uninterupted since the early 1970’s, through Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Obama.
It will go on as long as we tolerate it.

"What about Somali or Hispanic students, who might not eat sandwiches? Send them back to their home countries where they won't be offended by Americans.

Actually, he probably was eating nasi goreng,gado-gado,sate and soto. This reference to peanut butter and jelly was designed to make people think of him as American and forget the fact that he was raised in Indonesia.

But peanut butter was invented by George Washington Carver, a black man. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Of course, that statement is itself racist.

Somebody should tell the fruitcake that Americans eat whatever they darn well please.
I eat bread, tortas, pitas, Mexican food, Tex-Mex, Indian, Thai, and who knows what else.
If I was racist I'd only eat Gringo Food - Oh, wait did I just use the word Gringo?
