WHO CARES!? Why is this an issue?

It is a valuable discussion - not the President specifically, but “race”. There is one race - the human race - and there are innumerable varieties of skin color (melanin). In the discussion of blackness, is it skin color or heritage? Does my great great grandfather’s blackness and my great grandmother’s Cherokeeness make me a black Cherokee even though I look like a purebred Viking? Does my heritage have no value because of my melanin. What reparations would my family get when the wingbats get their way? What is the line between black and not black, what shade exactly? Or can we all be Elizabeth Warren and name it, claim it? We should have this discussion.

My first thought also. What a waste of time and money that poll was. Maybe the next poll will ask: Do you think Obama is a tall person?

Yes, who cares? I would say that Obama is more “Mixed Nuts” or “Mixed Ideologies” than “Mixed races”.

How about Obama’s rule being classified as “Mixed Cereals: Full of Flakes, Nuts, and Fruits”?
