Are either of his parents from Africa?
If not, then he is an American.
That was easy.
From Wikipedia: "Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama Sr. of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham of Wichita, Kansas."
Last line..... "Obama's father — whom Obama met only once — was a black Kenyan..."
From the article:
"For Crouch, the fact that Obama's father — whom Obama met only once — was a black Kenyan who came to the U.S. to study at Harvard and the University of Hawaii removes him from the traditional black American narrative."
So I guess the answer is 'yes'.
One parent (his father) was a Kenyan native, Barack Hussein Obama, the senior. The person we speak of, is actually Barack Hussein Obama, the junior.
His mother is definitely Caucasian, and was born American. So by some twisted stretch of imagination and interpretation, Obama-Osama is "African-American". But he is equally as much a "Muslim-American", and in fact, only the accident of birth (in Hawaii) makes him "American". A legacy, not supported by his upbringing, which was in a Muslim household in Indonesia, where he had a Muslim stepfather (his mother and natural father divorced before Barack was two years old, and his father has since died).
A better description would be "Oreo" because of his half-white ancestry, and the outside only conceals a much different inside. He is recorded as being a member of a Christian church, but that is only protective coloration in his case. A child cannot grow up in the presence of that much Muslim influence in the home without being definitely shaped and molded into that set of mind. For certain, Obama-Osama has never RENOUNCED any ties with Islam, nor do we have a public declaration of devotion to Christianity.
The emptiest suit in America. Or perhaps, the most diabolical Trojan Horse in history.
Things are definitely not as they seem to be with Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.

His father is from Kenya. His mother is a white American. He is truly American-African, and the inverse of what the racial terms Black American, Negro, and Afro American define.
Yes, his father.
But, he doesn't have an American first name: And he found it important to do photo ops in Kenya.
