Majority in poll says Obama is 'mixed race'
The Hill ^ | April 14, 2014

Posted on 04/14/2014 3:44:24 PM PDT by SMGFan

A majority of people in the United States perceive President Obama as being "mixed race,” a new poll suggests.

In a study of America's evolving demographics, the Pew Research Center found 52 percent of people view Obama as being "mixed race." Less than a third view him as "black."

More than half of white people view Obama as "mixed race," but more than half of black people view the president as "black."

Obama and Holder have zero slave blood. They are complete frauds. Its ridiculous how real black people here (with slave ancestors) fall for their garbage but I guess the freebies and whitey hating rhetoric is too seductive

And if Holder/Obama don’t give them enough racist red meat....They always have their closest Representative from the Congressional Black Caucus. From Elijah Cummings on down

WHO CARES!? Why is this an issue?

My first thought also. What a waste of time and money that poll was. Maybe the next poll will ask: Do you think Obama is a tall person?

No, that would be an Octroon; possibly a quadroon if you want to be liberal in your usage (see, for example, Alexander Dumas).

That says 2 things about Obama. He’s in denial and he’s a racist bigot.

LOL! Somebody had to take a poll on that? I guess black people don’t want to admit to the fact that he’s part white, like that would be a betrayal of their race, or something.

A poll might yield that. A pole would show us how deep the water is.

Many, if not most, of us are.

The bottom line is that I couldn’t care less about Obama’s skin color. He is the one who focuses on that when he thinks it will benefit his policies.

I think his ideals are dangerous for everyone: red and yellow, black and white. And all variations thereof.

I regard King Barry as white. That way it isn’t racist to hate him.

Yes, who cares? I would say that Obama is more “Mixed Nuts” or “Mixed Ideologies” than “Mixed races”.

How about Obama’s rule being classified as “Mixed Cereals: Full of Flakes, Nuts, and Fruits”?
