Perhaps he can offer advice to beleagured minorities on how to create tax shelters for their investments, or outline the advantages a lower capital gains tax will bring them when they reap the rewards of a strategic sell-off.

Maybe he can regale them with his intimate knowlege of the "touch-tone keypad" at the local Sheetz, and how "amazing" it is that his food is delivered without the assistance of a maitre'd or wait staff. He can speak at length about the good hard work done by the men at his wife's stable and how they'll be the millionaires of tomorrow.

There's just so much he can identify with to the NAACP I don't see what can go wrong until he says those words we all know are right on the tip of his tongue: "Some of my best friends are black".
