Due to this rule and other cultural effects, it is common to consider a half-black person "black". Heck, if you want, call him mulatto, though I believe that's offensive to some. One way or another, he's not 100% white. :)
Can someone not write a mid-life story?

In fact, you could even consider writing a best-selling book as "doing something". Or making a few millions as "achieving something". Or becoming a United States Senator. Or any number of things he's done.
Was Obama's grandmother running for vice president at the time?Quote:

I like the way you can't explain yourself and the way you try to weasel out of it by making it about me.

Not to long ago a reporter would go up to someone and ask a question then listen to the answer then say "ok back to you ........"Quote:

Good lord. What is wrong with Chumpy, he is so angry all the time. He is the democratic police here on ST and the grammar police as well. I could not live my life like that. I will get some insults thrown at me for this.:lolQuote:

If that woman reporter had been rude to say a black man, there would have been an uproar possibly an Al Sharpton sighting. And if that woman had talked shit about the crowd if say the crowd was at a protest for gay marriage, against the war in Iraq, against global warming, or against Bush, that woman would have been fired from CNN ASAP. Double standard!
Probably not.
Poor, oppressed minicon victims. I pity their wounded majesty. They've been denied their rightful hagiography as martyrs of an unjust, elitist society. Boo hoo!
