Well, since you asked: Active is one part and proposing barriers against running being the source of the disparity is another. "Some" is leading too but that's a bit different. It's probably better to let Lisna speak to this but I think that you inaccurately reframed what he saw as an aspect of the party that he liked as the defining aspect of the party.
I can see your point. It is not my intention to 'lead the witness' so to speak. I recognize that my initial statement made it sound like Lisna was suggesting that the racial heterogeneity of the Dem party is its defining appeal for him, which is not the case.

What do you think would be a fairer way to frame the broader question at hand?

"What is the cause of the racial disparity between the Republican party and the Democratic party?"
