isn't it funny that black people have stereotypes as a whole group, while whites have separate groups:

here are some of our lovely stereotypes as black people:
Superstitious
Lazy/Slovenly
Happy-go-lucky
Ignorant
Musical
Ostentatious
Very Religious
Dirty (physically)
Naive
Unreliable
Athletic
Rhythmic/Musical
Unintelligent/Ignorant/Stupid
Poor
Loud
Criminal
Hostile
Dis-loyal to Family

for more see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypes_of_Blacks

looking for white stereotypes you have to look them up individually:
# White trash
# White Anglo-Saxon Protestant
# Redneck
# Dumb blonde
# Angry White Male

Actually, those stereotypes you got listed for Blacks are exactly the same as the ones Americans used and use against poor southern white people, against poor southern white women also but especially to poor southern white men. "The Moonshine" caricature, for example, is/was a silly cartoon-like caricature that depicts a lazy, drunk, unintelligent and jovial poor white man...much like the "sambo" caricatures but it was/is used to stereotype poor white men from Appalachia who manufactured and sold "moonshine" illegally back in the days.
