Yeah, heard about things like that.

I am curious, A white South African, whose family lived in South Africa for 3 centuries, is an African-American by definition, yet they are denied that description by the schools, and government agencies.

Indeed. It is a misnomer. A platitude. A pointless and incorrect label. The government insists on labels so they can parcel out their largess to those with the favored labels.

By the conventional definition Barack Obama barely qualifies. But he subscribes to the "right" positions.

Apparently "African American" refers not to birth, descent, or skin color but to support of atheism, abortion, and buggery.
