"In a democratic society where racism is a common issue amongst the populous, if only 12% of the population is black it is extremely unlikely for a black person to be president.
Oh, wait... That happened. Two terms in a row. And yes, I realise the US isn't 90% white but my point is just that it's not as unlikely as you present. It actually fits the US reasonably well and we don't know anything about the political situation in Zootopia."
1 question you have to answer to use this metaphor would be: is America's racism as bad Zootopia's dietism?
My answer to that is going to be it is not. Because if a police officer said something along the lines of what Judy said on that podium in the US, she'd probably be kicked off the force rather quickly.

Or maybe I'm being a bit too optimistic?
It's an interesting question none the less.
