    Are you sure? He could be a Mexican-Cybertronian? Or an Asian-Cybertronian?

    Lots of people who mod cars (or are mod cars, in this case) fish besides white people. :) 

    (Also, I'd never heard any comic on cable say that before.)

    At any rate, it's better than an individual being groomed for leader who spends all of his time in pursuit of jAaM.
