Wild Rose Candidate says he has advantage because he's Caucasian

http://twitpic.com/9az8mx

"I think as a Caucasian I have an advantage.

When different community leaders such as a Sikh leader or a Muslim leader speaks they really speak to their own people in many ways.

As a Caucasian I believe that I can speak to all the community."

I'm at a loss for words here.

White people can speak for everyone but brown people can only speak to the very narrow, special interest issues of their race or religion? I that kind of what he's trying to say here? Does he not see how racist that is? Or am I misinterpreting his meaning here?

Wildrose crazies really seem to be coming out of the woodwork, eh?
