He is Hafracan.
Correct me if I’m wrong. I though Obammy was 1/2 white, 1/4 African, and 1/4 Arab.
I know that’s cute and all when Rush says it, but it’s not helpful. Fact is that by any standard over the course of the country’s history anyone with a certain percentage (I’m too lazy to look it up) of American/black blood would be listed as “black” or until at least the 50s or so “colored.”
100% liberal! That’s what I’m prejudiced against.
Lucky Barack, he came out black. The genes were with him, but not all kind. He’s got those dumbo ears and a two piece jaw line.
Hi—well, I thought his father’s Kenyan citizenship listed him as an Arab African. Somewhere on his father’s maternal side there is some African ancestry. Obama is predominantly Arab-American, not African-American. Arabs in Kenya were notable slave traders...
I can't remember, and I don't have the time right now to reasearch, but just because he is black does not necesarilly mean he is African.
IIRC, his daddy was Haitian, or Indonesian, wasn't he?
If so, he's more Voodoo than Zulu.
Obama's ideas: 1/2 assed.
Hiwell, I thought his fathers Kenyan citizenship listed him as an Arab African. Somewhere on his fathers maternal side there is some African ancestry. Obama is predominantly Arab-American, not African-American. Arabs in Kenya were notable slave traders...

The ultimate irony! Very funny. I wondered why his mother went from an African husband to an Indonesian, it didn’t seem consistent. But she really went from one muzzie to another, neither of whom were black.
That's what I thought too.
This guy says Obama is an Arab-American:

It used to be referred to as “The one drop rule”
Halle Berry (a certifiable babe) wins the Oscar and calls it a win for black people. No thanks to her white mom.
Having some white blood amongst the black is not a distant thing. It is their direct parent.
Would recognizing one's immediate lineage be racist?
Ain’t it ironic? The black side of Obama’s family is from Africa and never experienced slavery. The white side of his family owned slaves. That’s right, Obama is the descendant of slaveowners but not the descendant of slaves.
Sorry that was vague...One drop rule meant if you ahve one drop of “Black” blood, you are Black.
Right. Thanks.
Exactly.
People are against ANY candidate who will EXTEND AND ENLARGE upon already bloated taxpayer funded, government give-away plans for minorities.
With Hussein Obama as President, that is a lead pipe cinch. THAT’S why Americans may be against a racial minority represented in the WH. There, I said it. It has to do with race and it doesn't have to do with race. Both.
Does Mr. Cain believe the overwhelming support for Obama by blacks is NOT "racially inspired"?
The years and years of reverse racism in this country by many, (celebrities and politicians for example), again is overlooked.
Perhaps Mr. Cain agrees with this.
