Why do you think Barack Obama is the first black president of USA?
WHY
Obama is better than the "rogue" character McCain and the millionaire tax dodger Romney. Obama's skin color is not an issue here--unless you're a racist.
Just for the sake of accuracy, he's not our first black president, he's our first 1/2 black or more accurately, mulatto, president. You're welcome.
Cool--so those signs of him as a voodoo witch doctor were outlining his white heritage....thanks
Irregardless of the signs or memes, he is still 1/2 white, there's just no getting past that genetic fact LOL His mother was as white as me, thus, Mulatto. Even black people were asking if he was "black enough" when he was running in 2008.
Actually that M word is racist. It is better to call him multi-racial
Yeah, actually it's not, Mulatto is a word that has been in use for a several hundred years, is perfect English, and is both descriptively and grammatically correct. Libs would call a ham sandwich racist if it suited their ends, doesn't make it so.

It made me think, so I am wanting to put this one out there and read your thoughts on this issue. I believe that...

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that he is the first mixed race President? If so, why do the blacks get to claim him?I don't know about every state, but in Georgia, where I live, birth certificates list the race of the baby as the race of the mother. If that is the case in Hawaii,...
