"There's less than 1 percent of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than 4 or 5 percent that are minorities. What is in Washington? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you're dealing with."

I don't see anything racist about this. "What you start off with, what you're dealing with" implies, to me, that he is referencing that minorities are frequently coming from financially disadvantged families, unable to afford good education, tutors, etc, and therefore are less able to score well on tests.

Nothing racist about it. And I'm a Ron Paul supporter. I think all these claims that these people are racist are really stupid.

What? I read your explaination, and I'm still confused. Sure, it would have been fine if he had caveated, but he didn't.
