Obama (1/2 white) is more white than Zimmerman (1/4 black, 1/2 hispanic, 1/4 white).

Nope. Father is white (possibly Jewish), mother is Peruvian immigrant and therefore Hispanic.

One of her grandparents was "black," though possibly not full-blooded.

So GZ is maximum 1/8 African ancestry.

Zimmerman is a German name and is not in this instance Jewish.

The family is Catholic.

The father is not Jewish, merely of German descent.
