This "he's not black" crap is nothing more then the Republicans being upset that the first Black President of the United States is a Democrat. Number 6 is correct. If Barack Obama was the guy who shot a policeman you all would have no problem classifying him as Black

What does it matter? I have relatives whose birth certificates say white who are the most African-looking people I have seen. Race designation is stupid anyway, but this certainly proves that beyond the shadow of a doubt.

I don't know how anybody could see him as anything other than bi-racial, because he IS bi-racial.
