Why is it that people born with a black dad and white mom (or visceversa) can be black but can't be white?

I'm not sure because the white gene is dominant and the black gene is recessive.

Obama is supposed to be black, but he follows Griffin's geneology. Thomas Jefferson was white, but his decendants from his former slave bred with blacks.
Heck, people are people, not aliens, we are all from this earth!

I should probably google or wiki it, but my understanding is that in black culture, there is the "one drop" rule. Basically, if you have one drop of African American blood, you're considered black.
Now I don't know the origins but I think that it could go probably go back centuries and how mixed people were viewed by white folks and/or by the law. I wouldn't be surprised if a "one drop" rule was something, for example, states and the federal government used as to deny people the right to vote before the 15th Amendment.

Because a lot of people are ignorant and can't see past skin color. Griffin, Williams, Kidd, Bibby, Parker, Udoka, Barnes, Obama, etc. aren't "black" or "white" (as they're so often referred to), they're "black" and "white".
Mix up the difference between a Bosnian and a Serbian and it's the end of the world, but call a mixed person "black" and it's more than okay, even though there's a far bigger difference between the latter than there is the former.

who cares. where i'm from, if you look more white than black, you're a whiteboy. if you look more black, youre a n----. williams and kidd would be called white boys, griffin, parker and barnes are the other one even though they would all be considered black

Well your understanding, Jose, is completely the fuck way off. Comprendy? The 1 drop rule is the slave owners idea.
IMO, I go by my heart And Blake is white according 2 my heart

What does David Lee have to do to get respect? Kevin Love ring a bell? How about Troy Murphy?
Those are guys who will win you a lot of ballgames but are totally underrated because... well, not exactly sure why they're so underrated. They don't take 18 shots a game?

Those three are all fine players, but they're not really superstars like the others mentioned.
Hansbrough definitely has superstar potential.

Mix up the difference between a Bosnian and a Serbian and it's the end of the world,
I never understood that. I was born in Bosnia, and I never understood why people are so sensitive to that. Whenever someone asks me where I'm from, or what language I'm speaking, I say "Bosnian, or Serbian, I don't know I can't really tell the difference, maybe in the dialects or something" but when I go back to Serbia if I call their language Bosnian or something, they get upset :lol

So now white people are trying to claim mixed people? When this happen?
The next great American player will come, but unfortunately none of us will be alive to see it.

Just for the record, this question was meant as a knock on those that think this way (if you half and half you're black not white), I don't think that way.

That was only after Barry was elected.
