I’m just curious — where did you get the 1/7 black thing? I thought Obama was half-black, half-white? (White mom; Dad from Kenya)?

Dad from Kenya (if he really *was* Dad, been some debate about that) was of *mostly* Arab descent, with only one grandparent being of Sub-Saharan African bloodline (hence the Arabic name given to Obama). This is a known fact...

Why from FR of course!

Actually I read an article a couple of months back that was explaining what percentage of black blood a person had to have to be considered "Black" in some parts of Africa. It had to do with government handouts to its citizens.

I actually can't remember if it was posted here on FR or not. I guess I could look it up and get back to you when I have a few free moments.
