Reply #130: This post is so idiotic that I have to wonder what the hell you were even thinking

Obama is actually a white man. He was raised as a white man by this one white parent. And the laws of the quadroon no longer apply, except in your own mind.

You need to meet black people. You need to TALK to black people. You need to KNOW black people.

Obama describes himself as a black man. His MOTHER described him as a black man. You and your BS about "quadroons" need to join the 21st century where more and more and more bi-racial black people are considering themselves solely black based on their love and appreciation for black culture as well as the amount of racism they experience from folks who see black/brown skin and could give less than a damn that one parent was white.

Bi-racial blacks have ALWAYS been considered black in this country. This hoopla among white folks that somehow the president is falsely considering himself a black man is one of the most manufactured pieces of bullshit I've seen in a long time. If JoJo down the block has a black daddy and white mama and considers himself black, no one cares. But for the president to do the same, he is somehow a "fake" applying "quadroon" laws. It's obvious you don't even know what a damn "quadroon" really is.

I also want to note that this "Obama's not really black" crap is something I am REPEATEDLY hearing from the mouths of "liberals." The same folks who try to pretend that "Racism is alive and well in the US but it is just a whisper in the liberal left."

I just want to thank you with all of my heart for proving Melissa Harris Perry's point. You and the idiot who "+1000" your post are precisely the type of individuals that she is speaking about.
