2. Not quite sure that the reason for McCain is white privilege.
It came out in an interview with Michelle Obama on Larry King that the reason (hinted at by King and Mrs Obama) that Colin Powell would never run for the Presidency was Mrs Powell fears of assassination.

Of course maybe that IS an indication of white privilege - we white honkeys can run for office and not worry that the motiviation for killing us would be the color of our skin.
