C'mon, Matt, he really didn't, nor did his campaign. He specifically, and most notedly by the historians, completely avoided "the race card" and talking about race during his campaign.

However, many others in the general opposition and fringe did not. One can't call a person "n-----" nowadays, but plenty of opposition called him "the other", "Muslim", "not one of us" , "not really an American", "Kenyan", and brought up Rev. Wright, etc.
