Sorry, but most are not. In fact by a very sizable majority (70%).

I never got the sense that Obama was 'playing' any 'rule'.

He put his family history out there for all to read about.

He didn't hide anything.

He's mixed race.

Just like Tiger Woods.

Do you think Tiger is playing some racial game?

Of course that doesn't even begin to address the contribution of African Americans to the culture and art of this country in fact the only arts that are truly indigenous to this country and for which this country is known across the globe.

I won't bother you with the economic contributions because it would require a tab bit more brain power and sophistication.

Typical liberal BS. "I think a different way than you so I am smarter." No, you have just been brainwashed by PC public schools, college professors and/or the media.

I'll grant that blacks invented jazz, blues and MoTown in the music realm. I'm guessing the "economic contributions" will consist of the fake list of things blacks supposedly invented but actually didn't, such as peanut butter and the gas mask.

Odd... 100% of the black vote went to whites in 2004. 100% of the Hispanic vote too.

Are you not old enough to remember?

No, the line is, I think therefore I am smarter.

Sorry, but I grew up in a time when schools were run by people like yourself. It took sometime and effort to unlearn.

Wrong again (it goes back to the thinking thing). Without African Americans the south would have never become an agricultural power. African Americans also contributed by the fruit of their free labor in the coal mines, railroads, steel mills and auto plants that made this nation an industrial power just like every other ethnic group that came to this country, and continue to do so today.
