I generally like Star Parker but I believe she and many others expose themselves as unconscious racists by accepting Obama as “black”. He is as much white as he is black and I understand he self-identifies as “black”. All they do with this is acknowledge and accept the old “one-drop rule” of the Jim Crow laws. I don’t understand why they make this choice.

Just how many "blacks" in this country do you think are pure black with no other blood mixed? The truth is most blacks have some white, or other type, of ancestry. White is the predominate other blood mixed with black. All people who look black call themselves black. Could you see some one like Bozo trying to pass as white? Nope, wouldn't work. Regardless of their ancestry, people with brown and black skins and with negro blood are called either black or, misleadingly, African American.

Since he was raised by white people, in Hawai I would say he is more white than black.
He is not a Black American and has no concept of what the average Black American heritage is.
