Sure, an idiot, regardless of the race, might think that and care about the color of one's skin a lot, but my personal experience, at the very least tells me that people care less and less about race as they get smarter. Smart people simply have better to care about than race.
And despite what might seem like an evidence, I don't necessarily think that someone's race really influence their worth as much as the environment they grew up in: whether you're black, asian or white, if you grow up in a poor family that can't afford to pay you a good education, you're going to end up stupid anyway. One might argue that race somehow has an influence, and it might be true to a certain extent, but it is probably fairly minor in comparison the landslide that social background makes. So as long as I'm with other educated people, their race doesn't really matter.
Of course I would be mad about incompetent people being given a position on the account of their race, but that is not diversity, this is discrimination in a meritocracy.
