She starts the story off by saying that when she hears about someone talking about how they felt different because of their skin color, she's reminded of this story of her grandkid, so one can reasonable assume that the idea of people feeling different because of their skin color is important to this story. 

She mentions her grandson's friend and then says she was proud of this day. She says he grandson said his birthday wish was to have the same skin color and eye color as his friend. 

She then says that the "face of the future for our country is all American. And that has many versions". 

One can then reasonable read that as her saying that America is growing into a place where the typical American doesn't look one way, Americans can be any and all shapes and colors. 


So when she thinks about people who feel bad because they look different, she's reminded of how her 6 year old grandson wants to look like his friend, who has a different skin color than him and that makes her think about how there's no one way to look American. 

So is Tucker's analysis that she thinks it's bad to be white accurate or is it closer to my analysis that she's proud because it reminds her that kids don't care about skin color and the future of America will be one where all colors are valued? I'm not sure, I'm not Nancy Pelosi. I just know that Tucker Carlson is almost definitely wrong in making this a story about shaming white people. 

If the point is that kids don't care about skin color then why would the kid wish to be brown?
