60 Minutes did bring up his marijuana use, his cocaine use...but he pretty much said that they were in his past...and he did it because he was "mixed up" about where he belonged...
Soooooo..we can't hold that against him...end of story!
When asked if he considers himself "black", even though he was brought up with a white mother..in a "white" household...he said that he looks black...and can tell when he walks on the South Side of Chicago, and plays basketball...that "they" consider him black.
He plays basketball?
Of course he considers himself black.
He has referred to his Hawaiin grandparents, who raised him from the age of 10, as "white folk."
