If a Caucasian who was born in South Africa and emigrates to the United States do they answer the question concerning race on their census form as “African-American?”

Oh, and remember the university here in the U.S. who printed up something about a photo exhibit by a famous South African photographer of his depiction of "African American South Africans"?

He is correct when he checks AFRICAN American. More so than Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton or .....

Actually half black half white. And then one does wonder where he was born.

Here is an interesting video taken January 2, 2009. One only needs to listen to the first 20 seconds to hear Michelle's interesting statement about “home country”. What do you think Michelle meant by her statement?

I think that picture was a proven fake, among the several others that were submitten in a faint hope to present a false past of the messiah. Obama’s hands look like they are broken or in a very unnatural position. It also looks like he is resting his arm on a third knee.

Who cares what his race is. I don’t. Its irrelevant.

What is relevant is we have an unconstitutional president who is as BRITISH AS HE IS BLACK.

The cretin should be in prison and indited as a traitor.

Rubbish. Race only means something to the political Left, who use racial classifications to hand out goodies.

If he chose his father’s race over his mother’s, does he choose his father’s nationality over hers as well?

"The Census Bureau" did not release that information.

"The White House" did.

2 days after 0bama fills out his Census Form the information is made public.

Yet 18 months and 2 million dollars later, nothing concrete about the records of his past.

Is it me or does that strike others as a bit odd?

If I recall, only Obama’s paternal Grandmother was Black African. His other paternal grandparents were Arab Africans (ie: the historical slave captors and traders). His mother was White Caucasian, making Barry’s actual race as 50% White, 43% Arab, and only 6.25% Black (african). Isn’t it required that you be at least 12% of any ethnicity before you can claim to be of that race?

“I marked mine as “Other: Unknown”.

It is difficult to deal with these stupid questions when they don’t provide any definitions.

If I recall my history correctly, in some parts of the slave-holding South, if you had “one drop” of Negro blood, you were Negro. So how does anyone know that they don’t fit some definition of “Negro”?

“Why is the lettering on his shirt different than everyone else’s?”

Practice jersey vs. game jersey (or vica-versa)?

Wrong one in the wash that week?

“There is a $500 fine for falsifying information on the form.”

Bingo. Can we make a citizen’s arrest? At least we ARE citizens. Of course he is above the rules.

I, personally, don’t care what happens with my medical information. If you want to view the video of my last colonoscopy, be my guest. It wasn’t that interesting, even for a colonoscopy.

Better quality video here...and the date was August 2008, not 2009.

You should care! I became very ill about 9 or 10 years ago and doctors couldn’t figure it out. My internist finally told me I had anxiety and threw pills at me.

Nothing could have been further from the truth. I was suffering from chronic hyponatremia and when I got to the point of no longer functioning beyond staying in bed and getting up to go to the bathroom, I went to the emergency room. They found that I was severely dehydrated, gave me 2 units of saline and my fever instantly went away and my heart rate returned to normal. It took a month or two to lose the tremors, tics and fatigue, but I’ve been in great health ever since.

I self-diagnosed after the reaction to the saline and realized I was overdrinking water. To this day, anyone looking at my records would think that I’m crazy based on my doctor’s misdiagnosis. The information in your records is only as good as what is inputted — which is often not correct!

From Dreams from My Father, “ I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER’S RACE”. Barack Hussein Obama

From ‘Dreams from my Father’, “The emotion between the races could never be pure, even love was tarnished by the desire to find in the other some element that was missing in ourselves. Whether we sought out our demons or salvation, THE OTHER RACE (WHITE) WOULD ALWAYS REMAIN JUST THAT: MENACING, ALIEN AND APART." Barack Hussein Obama

From Dreams from My Father: “That hate hadn’t gone away,” he wrote,.. BLAMING “WHITE PEOPLE — some CRUEL, some IGNORANT, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives.” Barack Hussein Obama

From ‘Dreams From My Father’, “There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs,” he wrote. “It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, TO SHOW YOUR LOYALTY TO THE BLACK MASSES, TO STRIKE OUT and name names” Barack Hussein Obama

From ‘Dreams From My Father’, 'I VOWED THAT I WOULD NEVER EMULATE WHITE MEN and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. IT WAS INTO MY FATHER'S IMAGE, THE BLACK MAN, SON OF AFRICA, THAT I'D PACKED ALL THE ATTRIBUTES I SOUDHT IN MYSELF, THE ATTRIBUTES OF Martin and MALCOLM, DuBois and Mandela.”

From The Audicity of Hope: TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN FOR A SELLOUT, I CHOSE MY FRIENDS CAREFULLY. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. THE MARXIST PROFESSORS and structural feminists.”

From The Audicity of Hope: (After graduating from college, Obama eventually went to Chicago to interview for a job as a community organizer. His racial attitudes came into play as he sized up the man who would become his boss:) “There was something about him that made me wary,” Obama wrote. “A little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.”

From The Audacity of Hope:..'the white race...“that ghostly figure that haunted black dreams.”

From “Dreams”: (after making his first visit to Kenya, he wrote of being disappointed to learn that his paternal grandfather had been a servant to rich whites. that the revelation caused) “ugly words to flash across my mind. Uncle Tom. Collaborator. House n-----".

From The Audacity of Hope: “We are no longer just a Christian nation... We are also a Jewish nation, a MUSLIM nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of disbelievers"

From 'Audacity': “Her memories of the Christians who populated her youth were not fond ones....For my mother, organized religion too often dressed up closed-mindedness in the garb of piety, cruelty and oppression in the cloak of righteousness.”

From Audacity: “Malcolm X’s autobiography seemed to offer something different. His repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me; the blunt poetry of his words, his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order, martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force

Then there is his love of Islam:

From Dreams From My Father: "THE PERSON WHO MADE ME PROUDEST OF ALL, THOUGH, WAS MY [half brother], ROY..HE CONVERTED TO ISLAM".

From ‘Dreams From my Father’, "IN INDONESIA, I SPEND TWO YEARS AT A MUSLIM SCHOOL" "..I STUDIED THE KORAN.."

From ‘Audacity of Hope: "LOLO (Obama’s step father) FOLLOWED ISLAM...."I LOOKED TO LOLO FOR GUIDANCE".

From ‘The Audacity Of Hope, "I WILL STAND WITH THEM (MUSLIMS) SHOULD THE POLITICAL WINDS OF WAR SHIFT IN AN UGLY DIRECTION.." .
