Race is a factor for some, but it's also "socialized" Obamacare, guns, gays, Chicago unions/thugs and for some, lack of military service. It's whatever the right-wing media blowhards tell them to home in on. And it'll be the same with Hillary, or whomever has the "D" behind his or her name in 2016.
