Why Is Obama considered Black

"Why is it, that everyone under the sun calls Obama black? The last time I checked his mother was white. I suppose everyone is judging by the color of his skin that this man is Black.

So did anyone bother telling his mother and grandmother before her death that despite you rearing and raising this child and teaching him how to walk and talk, sending him to school and everything involved with raising a child, that sorry your color (white) doesn't mean anything here.

Just an interesting thought, that when Andrew Jones played for the Atlanta Braves he was not considered afirican american or black because he was from one of the caribean islands or V.J. Singh the pro golfer(Fidji) but to look at either one of these men you would think them black.

But in this instance it seems to be for one race to some how gained an advantage because we declare him black(Jessi Jackson once said he ain't black enough) but wait no one would have voted for him if he was considered white.

So I guess people will vote for or against based on the color of a mans skin!So most Voted for the guy, because of the same reason the others didn't Vote for him. The color of his skin. Go figure
