If she says she’s black, she’s black. (sarcasm), Rick Santorum said something about this about Jenner.

Didn’t MLK want everyone judged not by the color of their skin but the content of their character?
I’m not saying he was a great man, but might things have been different if he survived?
i know nothing of his politics so i could be completely wrong.

if she's black, she's black

That's kind of true. Did some quick research. People self-identifying as black can be from as little as 1% black to almost 99%. There's no definition of how much black ancestry it takes to be black.

Would anyone be shocked if a "black" passed as white for preference or advantage? Unwittingly, this woman might have achieved a lot of good. She has exemplified the absurdity of affirmative action.

Exactly.

If Bruce Jenner must (to be considered a good person) be acknowledged as a woman, on what basis would we reject Rachel Dolezal’s claim to be Black?

I look forward to the social justice warriors of Tumblr and Facebook explaining that.

Correct.

But she's not black. So as a pundit on FOX said, this behavior is "inappropriate."

Maybe a lighter shade of black would be more appropriate.

Why would a white person want to become a poor, oppressed black? Could it be too enjoy the benefits of hiring quotas and other kinds of special treatment?

The Left is boxed in on this one. It's fun to watch.
