"We have this notion that somehow if you're poor you cannot do it." So far, no mention of race.
"Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids." A dumb, dumb racist remark to the effect that the poor kids are non-whites while the high performing, bright, talented kids are...wealthy??? Well no, but they are white!!
Who's being stupid now? You are such a biased liberal dem that it's not funny.
