I dont condone what this man said and maybe he needs to step down from his position...
Im sure if your grandparents used a word that today is Politically incorrect you would tell them so...or would you label them Racist...or by excusing them does that make you racist too (your own words).

That's a piss poor excuse my dad was born in 1926 and wouldn't have dreamed of using race as an adjective. It's very colonial langusage.
