    And when I google the term, I do not see anyone defining "racial resentment" as a cognate for "affirmative action"; rather, seems that when discussing AA folks also discuss RR. Racial resentment /= affirmative action.

    Here's a thoughtful counter-post to the study:

    The conclusion, again, is that the question "Is opposition to Obama based on race?" does not have a simple answer. Racial resentment definitely exists in America today, but it's more polarized along party lines than it has been in a long time. Many people who do not like blacks oppose Obama, but they would likely oppose him even if he were white since they're Republicans.
