Dwarves are stronger and have more stam. The racial is actually pretty good for when you're getting ganked and just need to get through that initial burst. It's also one more trinket to remove rogue poisons so you can put some distance between you and a rogue. Humans have a two min trinket, and reach hit cap with sword expertise, dwarves need maces. Those are the facts.

From a cosmetic and RP perspective, I've never liked dwarves. Humans or elves for me. In my case, the strength is negated by the fact that I have the extra strength from GF pants, so human it is. For a fresh reroll, if you can handle looking like a dwarf, then dwarf is superior.
I choosed Nelf Hunter instead of Human becuz of racials stats but sometimes i feel like i should have choosed human, now the same type of decision comes across.

Ofc i prefer looking like a human, but i can live looking like dwarf.
As Dwarf i would use Diamond Hammer, so expertise wouldnt be diferent.

2nd AGM, 2min cd Vs 5strength, 1stamina, 6resilience 5min cd.

Still dunno.

Not saying the Dwarf racial is bad but it's lost some of its usefulness with Cleanse now available.

And I wouldn't completely neglect Draenai. I've macro'ed the healing racial with Lifeblood and a Healing pot and it's helped me out of a lot of difficult situations. And the extra hit allows you to be spell hit-capped with only the Eyepatch and Bracers. So you can use a ring with a little more Stam/Str. The shadow resistance also helps against the annoyingly large amount of 24 Spriests in the bracket.

But out of Dwarves and Humans, I'd go with Humans because of the free trinket and expertise.
 
Wouldn't make a Alliance pala. But to be fair I think dwarf for FC and human for basic dps. Although RET is not suggested in this bracket.

------
Don't mess with human racial in 20-24 bracket.
 
I would say a big factor is how good you at working CRZ shenanigans at guru. If you don't have access to two p2ps for cross realm hopping, good luck getting those 2 agms for a human.
 
CRZ shenanigans at guru

I have recently looted the 12th AM needed (first was looted after MoP hit) on Goliath-Vashj. Vashj is a PvP server that is CRZ'd with Anubarak, a 24 twink PvP server. Despite all these things going against me, I still managed to get AGM on a Dranei Paladin, the biggest shiny thing possible. (Note that this couldn't have been done without p2p's keeping other p2p's off the chest, but I did not have a p2p helping me specifically)

Probably got chest 1/3-1/4 of the guru's I logged in for.
