No, there's two levels to this.

The dickishness/meanness of singling someone out by name in a public article on the Internet, which is what the comment here was primarily about.

And then the second level, which the commenter deliberately downplayed as a minor second point (but people here jumped on it...) that said person is a minority, so it makes one extra-suspicious about motives.

So I'm not sure where you got this "acting like race is about everything" point, because that wasn't in the comment.

Let’s just never criticize anyone who isn’t white, and treat them like children. Racism is solved!

It's pretty unusual to publically throw someone under the bus by name like this in a professional name.

Given it's an unusual situation, people are reflecting on what makes this allegedly incompetent VP different from other incompetent VPs who aren't called out like this?

What an amazing argument! So clever! You really got me there!

Yes, they really did get you there. Things can be about things other than race, though you wouldn't be able to tell based on this comment thread.
