Neither "black dude" nor "white dude" is a racist comment any more than white lady or black lady. they are descriptive terms for someone. John McCain is a white dude and Obama is a black dude. The wrinkly part is also true.
Descriptive terms that are not stereotypical are not racist. Perhaps if someone said something about how you could tell how white bread McCain is by his name or something similar, perhaps that could be considered racist.
By definition:
Racisim: A belief or a doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that ones own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
But, I don't think people who truly are racist have an understanding as to what the word "racism" really is. Evidence here almost every day.
