Correct.

Mother is white. He is half black.

Raised by a white mother and her parents.

:aicmon:

Everyone knows this. Being part black is still black. May not be full black, but part of him is still black.

If you have read his books you will know that he identifies himself as both African American and black. You would also know that people always treated him as an African American and he identified with that culture. So everyone else's opinions really don't matter.

Anyone arguing about his race or ethnicity are usually 1) black people who are resentful or have something against those who are part black, 2) biracial black people who want to separate themselves from other blacks & want nothing to do with black, 3) non-blacks who don't want to accept that their president is black or who try to suppress his identity to make themselves feel better.

Its all rooted in insecurity.

:what:

4) people who don't subscribe to a racist "rule" that was created to promote white supremacy.

That rule makes zero sense. Why does it only apply to people of African descent? Ask yourself that. Look up the history behind the one drop rule.

Maybe they just see that he's a politician who is like any other and that it's not really important that he's black :manny:

Damn, it's crazy how ma fukkas just want to erase history like the opression never happened. On some "oh well, he's black, nothing important to see here" type shyt. nikka even when I was a kid, I would never ever ever ever think a black man could become president.

I agree with you, BUT...

:mindblown: I don't know how some of you even have the patience for these type of arguments.

I really hope some of the posters on here are young--because if being "black" is determined by how miserable people treat you, what type of music you listen to, and how many times you can say "n!gga"to express yourself--then it really isn't suprising to see why so many of us are in the position that we are in.

who identifies with black because society forces them into that position. you'll find very few bi-racials claim they "identify with white" that doesn't mean they're one of us.

dude wouldn't have ever made it this far if he had a black mother & was wesley snipes tinted.

I do not go by the stupid one drop rule. You are obviously #2 .

Obama calls himself black and African American. Who are you to tell him what he is?

It doesn't matter if he chooses to go by just black or biracial black, he is still part black and he looks black. This obviously shaped his life in some way or he would never identify with those two terms so strongly in his books.

Most people I know who have a black and white parent call themselves biracial. All the people in my family do this. They don't call themselves white because they don't look white and they don't have the same treatment and privileges as whites. Well except for my little cousin but she only identifies as white because she actually can pass as white, the others can't.

I don't think Obama's success has anything to do with the race of his parents. I think it has more to do with his hard work.

As far as the "Wesley snipes tinted" thing goes, that doesn't have anything to do with his parents. There are plenty of light skin full black people who are the same color as Obama and lighter, so I doubt it had anything to do with him having a white mother. That is more than likely rooted in colorism.

The only reason why people call Obama black and not what he is is because of the one drop rule.

I'm obviously number 2? :what: Because I don't subscribe to a racist rule that promotes white purity? :wtf:

LOL @ He looks black. Wentworth Miller, Blake Griffin all look white and no one calls them white.

Obama looks like a mixed man. Here's a picture of him with his father's side of the family.

Most of those cats are the "Against anything that's popular" type crowd. They just trying to be different.

This.

Also they the types to be self-conscious around whites as not to appear to be c00ning or shucking and jiving.
