Frankly I'm strongly liberal and go to the DC forum and find that a lot of people I respect here having political leanings I vehemently disagree with. So I understand some of where you're coming from. But legitimately I think there's a lot more going on here than racism. Peters is as talented as anyone in the game but there's a cost/benefit analysis an organization needs to do for anyone prior to doling out tens of millions of dollars. Peters doesn't score as high as he should on that metric and that's a failing squarely of his own. It's not a black or white situation at all but just a realistic thing.
