Well, I didn't imply you're racist, so I can't respond to that. As for xenophobic, there's no reason whatsoever that anyone can't be dedicated to something in particular, even if it's something that you don't directly relate to as an American. People who choose to dedicate themselves to environmental concerns aren't doing so because they love trees more than humans. People who concern themselves with ethical treatment of animals (setting the most extreme PETA cases aside) do not do so because they love dogs more than humans. People who are of African ancestry and who then care about African needs (which, btw, is valid regardless of ancestry because it is easily in worse shape than just about any other place on Earth) do not do so (generally speaking) because they don't care about the US or white people. And it makes just about as much sense to criticize Obama based on his church's leader as it does to call John Kerry a child molester because he's Catholic.
