Yes, that is true in the case of somebody being taught that way or coming to that bias conclusion based on their own personal experience. You went off the deep end on the religion bit. I used religion and ethnic as examples to show that you shouldn't put everybody in the same boat when it comes to judging. Well, I guess you can, but then you would just be using a blanket approach. Now all that would be doing is labeling people based on certain aspects and making a final judgement based on that, instead of judging the person based on their own actions. There are bad Muslims as there are good Muslims. Pretty much replace the religion for another or for an ethnic and you get the same stance from me. You're correct that a person can't be a racist toward a Muslim since it is a religion, but discrimination can still be displayed. That is why I corrected myself earlier. It's great that Trump is being more honest than the average joe at that level, but that doesn't mean he gets a pass when I still view him as a headache.
We need a leader, I don't care if they are a president or some other high figure, that can start the process to restore the country to a non-laughable state. At one point, I'm sure a ton of people would have said the United States is one of the best countries to live in. Ask that same question today, and I'd take a guess that less people would still have that stance. No, it isn't just Obama's fault, nor Bush's, nor Clinton's. No single person, nor group, can be blamed for this mess.
Until we start working together, which that isn't going to happen due to greed, things probably won't be getting better imo.
