Even????? That is probably the only thing he would admit. It is the old game of blaming individual attitudes, not the system: things are bad because of individual attitudes, not because of the normal operation of the system.
"Racism" is a convenient excuse for many things that are wrong with this society it puts the blame on the individual: the lazy welfare mother on the one hand, and the bigoted cop or business owner on the other. This way, the system that creates and thrives on class inequality disappears from the the picture.
No wonder that Gore and kindred "bleeding-heart" representatives of the ruling class "admit" racism. It is a convenient scape goat that diverts attention from the broader issues of the organization of economy and society.
I received a rather good exposure to that propaganda technique in Eastern Europe under the Sovite rule. The government propaganda there was quite skillful in inventing sundry characters, such as "lazy workers," "bureaucrats" "hoolingans" and "kulaks" as the "root causes" of all social problems. The main message was: if only these people could change their attitudes, our society would be a paradise on earth. Seems as if the x-Soviets hacks were now on the payroll of the Republicrat duopoly.
