humans have no issue electing the descendants of goblin slaves into leadership positions. Race just isn't an issue in DF.

Your conclusion simply does not lead from your premise. Yes, a FEW random goblins that earned their trust after years and years with the civ, are sometimes granted citizenship and then have a chance of being elected purely because they are historical figures that the game tracks unlike large chunks of the rest of the civs population, so they are disproportionately represented. Basically a coding bug that they then get elected more often. Really they're just equals.

So what? What we can conclude from that is that "racial minorities that have proven themselves aren't an issue in DF." NOT "Race isn't an issue in DF." A stranger goblin is still a creature that you would be stupid not to fear by default, with no other information.
