Race is a subjective socio-economic construct, based in a mental illness to distract Humans from being Humans. Providing the false concept of Superior and Inferior Humans. The dominant culture has promoted the erroneous concept of various races through many venues, psuedo-science in particular.

All animals to the best of my knowledge have the same colour blood. Fish, lizards, birds, quadrupeds, and Humans have Red Blood. Non oxygenated blood is bluish-red, Oxygenated blood is a Bright red. Human Blood is carbon phyllic, it loves carbon, carbon monoxide, carbon di-oxide, alcohol, etc.

Humans all have the same colour blood, but do not necessarily bleed the same blood. There are 4 basic blood classifications: O, A, B, & AB. There are 2 variations of these types Rh Positive & Rh Negative. Most people are Rh positive in any of the categories.

The four bacic types are not restricted to the socio-economic limitting, primitve designations used for members of the Human family today

What would such a test prove? If I remember right, there are very few genes controlling blood type, and they are very specialized. This would have little bearing on anything else. However, race is partially a genetic thing, as people of different races adapted to different climates. This is why someone indigenous to Sub-Saharan Africa is likely to have black skin but someone from Finland will likely have white skin. These adaptations do go beyond the skin, but should not be used to prejudge someone just based on their race. Genetics only go so far in describing a species, and since, especially in America, most people are interbred amongst a number of races these genetic predispositions are not always an accurate depiction of a person's actual abilities.

I think I know what you are driving at, but a racist will still find legitimacy even outside science, because it is all a matter of post-rationalisation anyway.

His assertion, (appealing to fact or science) that some races are 'inherently superior' to others is less common than his assertion (appealing to emotion or self-interest) that some races are inherently lazy, criminal, prone to terrorism, etc.

There was a old Benetton print ad that had three (obviously identical-looking) human hearts (blood, gore, valves and all) lying side-by-side, labelled 'black, white, asian'.

Benetton was trying to say that we're all the same, but a racist can still look at that, shrug, and say: 'So? So what if we're really all the same?'

Your proposed blood test is likely to demonstrate 'sameness', again, but will not prevent or deter him.

The fact that people are equal, or even have a right to be treated equally, does not lead to the conclusion, unfortunately, that they WILL be treated equally.

Because blood types have nothing to do with aptitude or IQ tests. Blood types are based on antigens and antibodies not DNA structures. So Hitler making claims of pure blood and superior blood race is just more of bias rather than truly what blood types are about. Had it been blood analysis for DNA, I would have answered this differently.

There have been hundreds of tests to define levels of intelligence based on a variety of factors. These found that there was a definite difference depending on environment, genetic makeup, race, wealth and so on, but none of the tests found a correlation between levels of intelligence and specific blood groups.

There is no apparent or immediate association between blood type and intelligence or aptitude or performance

AB+ people are the most intelligent!!!! And we only account for 4% of the population.

Blood type has no bearing on intelligence.
