Just a thought

 Sam Smith - Donald Trump is very good evidence of the danger of only relying on white leaders in America, which he would like us to do. Few black or latino officials ever acted as badly as he has. And those that did lacked his power. Skin color and language don't tell us much. 

Black-and-white close-up portrait of an older man with short gray hair, stern facial expression, and suit jacket, overlaid with yellow text block quoting LBJ on convincing poor white voters by racial superiority to overlook economic exploitation.
