Well what about Obama then?'. I said, 'Well, I guess he's a 'White-Negro'

LOL Though I would describe him as a Negro-White as he has the dark skin. Mullatos sometimes are light skined and those would be called white-Negro.

Yes, back in 'the olden days' Barry O'DUmmie would technically be called a Mulatto(1) but like you say, most are lighter skinned than he is. Like Halle Berry whose mother was "European"(2) and daddy was "African-american"(2)

But today, the Mulatto word is as bad as calling them the 'N word'. All thanks to leftist political correctness running a muck over concerns of 'hurting their feelings'.

Footnotes:
(1) Per dictionary.com, Def #2: a person whose ancestry is a mixture of Negro and Caucasian.
(in Def #1 they note that 'Mulatto' is no longer in 'technical use'.)
(2) Quoted per Wiki. (Ijits won't even say 'white' and 'black')
