Two things. What the hell does that have to do with anything?

Secondly, what makes you think African Americans all came here early? Obama's father was never a citizen and spent very little time here. However, I still don't have a clue what who came first means in this discussion.

Then why do a certain number of them not love this country with all their heart, the way I do? If they remained in Africa in the late 1600s to mid-1800s they could well have been slaves in that country far longer than they were in the USA. White men spilled enormous quantities of their blood in order to set them free, why do they return that sacrifice with hatred?
I'm aware we're talking about a small percentage of the total pop of African Americans. However, it still grates to know some are being taught to hate rather than love their homeland. Apparently the radical preachers have scuttled Obama's campaign.
