Barack Obama is black?!?!?! by hadji2007-10-05 09:25:32
  He's not black. by AndyA2007-10-05 09:35:29
    No, you're mistaken by frizzgrig2007-10-05 09:51:28
      He's a Hawai'ian. (n/t) by CynicalRyan2007-10-05 10:02:00
        You got a source for that? ;-P by frizzgrig2007-10-05 10:15:50
          Well, he was born on Hawaii. by aix tom 2007-10-05 10:29:34
His father was Kenyan, his mother a white American.

He grew up on Hawaii and spent four teen-age years in Jakarta.

So the interesting thing might be, that while he is a Kenyan/American mix, it's not related to any of his direct ancestors being slaves in the US.

So does that really qualify for an "African-American" or "American of African Heritage" label? ;-P
