I remember hearing someone describe himself as a "Tenth-Amendment citizen". I would guess that that means "white", because such ignores at the least the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments.
I think that's really a dog whistle, not to racists per se, but to people who reject the idea of government power at the Federal level. Of course this harkens back to the nullifiers -- certainly racists to the core, but it applies equally to the Live Free or Die crowd who believe they don't need any support from others, and reject giving it as well: think ClassicX.
