I consider him our first Black President and embrace the change. Just so happens that I am around some people, family and friends, who don't see it that way. They think that because he did not come from a Black Mother that it "changes" him in some way. Just wanted to get a broader scope is all. While I disagree with some of his policies, I am very excited to watch his Presidency evolve.

ditto.

Question to those who dont think hes black: If you saw him walking down the street and had no idea who he was, what would you think then?

I think he looks a little Chinese actually.

I would think that he has too many DUIs and got his drivers license revoked

i can't decide if this is funny.

my first instinct, sadly, was yes.

possibly "check out black dumbo...f*ck those are big ears"

but more likely it would be more stream of consciousness and self indulgent. something like "i think about bacon too much. that's why i can't lose this gut. oh, who am i kidding, it's all the beer i drink. i wonder how fat i'd be if you could wrap bacon around beer? well, at least i don't have giant ears like that dude. jesus, no way he's dieting or exercising his way out of those flappers."
