Obama a Celebrity Due to Media Obsequiousness
Other than being somewhat charismatic, and a good speaker, what has this guy ever really done?
Dumped his white mother and maternal grandparents in favor of embracing the skin pigmentation of the father who abandoned him so that he can play the race card in furthering his career. This is known as Halle Berry Syndrome.
He gives liberal newspaper reporters someone to write about so they can say "Look how liberal I am, I wrote an article about a BLACK person!" It's about the reporter's secret bias being covered and not about the subject. IMHO
