The OP misses the point.
To be "Black" in America means (or used to mean) that you have a shared heritage with other "Blacks" that includes slavery, Jim Crow, generations of blatant and latent discrimination, and a sub-culture that is rich in unique artistic, linquistic, social, religious, and behavioral traditions.
Barry has NONE of that. He has no ancestors who were slaves. The people who raised him were white, atheistic, Muslim, and communists. He never lived in a ghetto until he chose to do so in Chicago, and then only briefly. Worst of all, he plays basketball like a white man...which is not in the least bit surprising. He only speaks with an African American patois when it suits him, and it is all contrived. Where would he have learned it? Hawaii? Indonesia? Columbia?
The only racial discrimination he ever experienced was in his favor, including without limitation being elected to the White House with ZERO accomplishments through the first 40-odd years of his life.
To any intelligent observer, it is clear that he gained admission to Columbia and Harvard Law through the contrivance of a false Kenyan birth claim and possibly an Indonesian passport. Of course we don't know yet because he has declined to make the records available.
These issues were discussed in the African American community when he first came to national prominence, but they collectively decided to back off, because a phony "Negro" in the White House was far better than Hillary Clinton.
"Black"? Not by a long shot. No more than Teresa Heinz Kerry (born in Africa) is an "African American"
Do you need a tissue?
