JOhn KErry will introduce his wife from the podium as "Our first African-American First Lady-to be..." :)
(Well, technically... :) Just like I can call myself a Native American. No Indian blood in me, but I was born in Lynn, MA, which is part of America, so I'm a Native
American, aren't I? :)
And you and I ARE "native Americans",since we were both born here.
I am so sick of these stupid,PC word games.
Actually, I don't get the criticism of Theresa for referring to herself as African American. She is authentically African American, more so than most of the people in this country who use that label.
