  Alright, I think you made a clear argument there. Now thinking from a different perspective it does hinted that calling someone a person of color signals someone who is white has none, and it is not necessarily something positive. Verbally, you make sense there and I can see that I may have worded poorly on my argument.

  Maybe just a semantic point here, but generally, when a term has a suffix or prefix, it denotes that that variation is the special one.
  "Person of color" rather, would imply that "person" refers to a default, and if you're applying that to race, would be referring to a white person, would mean there is nothing remarkable or special about them.
  Adding either a prefix of colored- or a suffix of -of color to the word person, implies that there is something that distinguishes that person of a non-white race from a person who is white, who is considered mundane enough that no qualifiers are needed.
