Who spends that much time and forum space, defining WHO a person is? How about just let a person be a human. My own thought is you wasted a lot of time and shown just how race concerned you are.

I'm not sure his post was intended as pointing out any race fixations of his own, as much as it was those of the voters/pundits/media. They do refer to him as black for the most part, giving rise to some un-stated rule that those genes are the dominant ones when calculated for political purposes. Obama stated in the past he refers to himself as a "mutt", but most of his supporters feel otherwise obviously.
Maybe it would help if we chose our candidates for office the same way the contestants were chosen on the Dating Game, that daytime TV show where one girl chose from three bachelors hidden from view. The voice, the answers they gave, and the basic history the emcee read would be the only contact allowed for the voters. Gotta wonder if Obama would have been selected with rules like that last election
