>>>You’re reading too much into this. people talk of their homeland, meaning where their forefathers came from.<<<<

Seriously?

Well, her expression of Mr 0bama’s “Homeland” will come in very handy as a TV commercial for every major election until he is out of office.

The Commander in Chief, President of these United States does not and should not go around inserting the First lady to inform the country about the fact that his “HOMELAND” is in Africa.

My grandfather emigrated from Italy and he ALWAYS demanded everyone understood that his “HOME” was in America, NEVER Italy. And he was just a simple railroad worker, not the POTUS.

Then why are we supposed to call all those of the Negro Race, AFRICAN-AMERICANS, and why is it on the census?

African-American is not any kind of indicator or 'race'.

It 'is' an indicator of a 'claim' of homeland.

Yes. Regardless that she meant the home of Obama’s forefathers, for Pete’s sake, he’s the President of the United States. How smart is it to say Kenya is his homeland or home country or home? Puh-leeze.

Your grandfather was an American in his heart before he ever set foot on these shores.
