Yes....all the Fords are Memphis high society mulattos.

Hmmm. I couldn't tell whether he was white or black. Not that it really matters, I am just curious. It seems mixed race people turn out to be very attractive people - look at Vanessa Williams or Mariah Carey. Ford seems like a handsome guy.

Don't fool yourself Hack....in urban politcs...race matters...so does religion in some areas. If little Ford weren't passably black he would be who he is.

I think I read somewhere awhile back that Harold Ford, Jr.'s grandmother was/is white (don't know if she's still alive)-so that may explain it. I think he's quite handsome too, despite his liberal leanings. Too bad.
