Think which way? That some are accused of being racist for criticizing President Obama? Yep.

But then, I guess that makes ME a racist as well, since I don't see it in his writings, right?
Unbelievable. Choose to be offended, and guess what? You'll find that you are...

With the exception of the so-called "typical Mormon racist," I agree with everything you've written.

Help of course, they make it look cool and they are giving their message of supporting communism upfront at the door.
