    hes half kenyan and half white... neither are true 'blacks' so by people saying that hes the first black president are in the same boat as racists, looking at the color of the skin before the facts...

    this case is different because he comes from the same continent as the slaves came from, so automatically people assume that they are the same... should we treat german americans like nazis? or orientals like the japenese from WWII? no we shouldnt but people do, and since there is a visual difference, thats the big difference....

    there are always going to be the crazy's of every group, ex rednecks, and n****rs, left wing nuts, misbehaving athletes (T.O., pacman)... but can we let those FEW justify the entire group? with todays media, noone wants to hear the good things but if theres something bad, alot of the times its blown way out of proportion which eventually slants peoples views....

    why cant people just say "hey i think hes the best for the job, so thats why i voted for him' and not play the race card?

    Please explain to me what a true black is? The original black person is from sub-saharan Africa which includes Kenyans.
