Not being bi-racial, as Obama is, half white, half black, white mom, black dad, dad leaves when he is 2 years old, mom leaves him at 10, what were his thoughts when hearing his beloved Grandmother express such concerns to him and he is black as well. I wonder how a child processes such information or fears from the woman who is his rock in his life, and how it would formulate his views as he grew to manhood.
Sorry, just musing.
It wasn’t grandma who said anything in Obama’s original recounting of the incident, it was his grandfather (who was a bit quick to find fault in others) who assumed that the grandmother was particularly bothered by the panhandler because the bum was black.
The only person in the family who clearly has insulted an entire race is Barack.
