He's preaching Free-Market principles for everything. Its otherwise known as Ideology. Ideology is often bad because it has one prescription for every problem. But as misguided as he might be on this issue, I don't think that means he thinks Black folks just aren't as smart as white people.
And thats what you're saying, and its not accurate. As for birth right citizenship, I don't know why he is against it (If he is, this is the first i've heard of it) but I'm sure his website will tell you. It doesn't seem to add up though because jus soli is a founding principle and he's also someone who's got a really loose freetrade policy so if you find out, let me know.

What do you think the default "American" is? Inevitably it will always mean adopting the culture of white people. Obviously, that would put that culture above all others.
Do you want more examples...?

Because Ron Paul's experience should speak for all women?

Because he agrees with Thomas Jefferson that it is “sinful and tyrannical” to “compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors,” Ron Paul will also protect the American people’s freedom of conscience by working to prohibit taxpayer funds from being used for abortions, Planned Parenthood, or any other so-called “family planning” program.

The Hyde Amendment prohibits federal funding for abortions and it's been around since 1976.
And here's a graph of what PP actually does.
