No, he is only half black, maybe gray. Did you compare his skin color with the skin of his father? There is a big difference. Though it does not matter at all.

Whatever. I just read it like this.

For examples:

He is always what people see in him. And as he is not white, he must be black. You're right, he is a not really black at all. He also has some typical white but also typical black facial features.

i think it's great

And if he has one arm, one leg, is green with pink dots, i would still vote for him.

it doesnt matter if he is black or white, even it doesnt matter if he is muslim or christian, as Colin Powell said. The matter is he is now the new president.

Technically we could call him a biracial crossbreed. But if he wants to be called black then we can do so. Maybe the society around him forced him to be black instead of white or multi-cultural.

But now we will watch and see if he keeps his promises.

Um.. What I meant with "Black president" was that the guy isn't completely white and completely American. It's great that the country was able to let the "nigga" (as stated in an other forum post) get to as high as presidential position.

I didn't expect that there would be another argue whether he is or isn't black. What does it matter in the end. It matters in one way though. He's the first non-white president. It's huge step for USA.

Now. I wish him good presidential career, may he keep the promises he intended to keep.

hm... I think we should stop the discussion of his color. This is no important point for such a political position.
I hope he will find a social way for his targets. No communistic or capitalistic way.
I wish him good luck .God bless his way ... and the world. Just because we saw that american decisions have everytime results even (but not only) for europe.

this opens many doors. i for one aim to be the first australian president of the USA.
