I would say there is definitely criticism of racism that is fueled or augmented by outright racism or simple disquiet (that is, they'd never overtly do anything particularly racist but have some unconscious tendencies) with having a black president.

Saying that, though, I further say that while it may be true, unless an individual instance of criticism or disrespect can clearly be tied to a racist idea it is politically disadvantageous to bring it up.
