Ask Teresa Kerry. She called herself African American during the 2004 campaign because of where she's originally from.

Probably not since according to the Socialist left, a white person born in this country is not considered to be a Native American. It's a DemocRAT labeling thing.

I have always held the opinion that the term African-American could only be used properly when referring to someone who was formerly an African citizen who has moved to America and become an American citizen. If they wish to retain their self-identity as both an African and an American, that's fine with me, as long as their loyalty now is purely to America in case of a conflict of interest.

Simply having dark skin or African racial characteristics does not make one an African-American IMHO.

I dont know, but it would make him ineligible to be U.S. President.

I had a friend who was half Egyptian (Coptic). I urged her to put herself down as African American. Egypt is in Africa, after all, and the AfroCentrists are always bragging about the accomplishment of the Egyptians, taking it for their own
