Can you rank him right now, or is it still too early?
IMO he's up there with MLK but behind 2pac

Where would you say Barack Obama ranks among important/influential African Americans in history?

I hardly think Tupac is even in the top 100 most important african americans in history.
There are so many politicians, scientists, activists and others (many who are unheralded) who deserve to be mentioned.

I mean he's not even in the top 10 most influential black musicians and singers.
are you white or something?
Just off the bat... Louis Armstrong, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Etta James....what's that, 6 people? And that's not even scratching the surface of influential black musicians...
I mean if you ...I guess it's a matter of opinion.
If you think so...hey, cool.
But I don't.

The government saw him as a problem so he had some type of influence on people.
Obama is mixed, one drop rule aside and all that bullshyt.
He's not even 100% black, his mom is the enemy.

Michael Jordan and Tupac >>>>>>Obama
I think that's overstated.
And even if were true, it is sad that anyone would think someone who incited violence between people (your example) deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with the first black president of the United States.
But that's just me.
