Obama is not really black, he is half white, which actually was one of Michelle's first not so positive comment. Now, that said, could it be, that the whitie blood in him carried some not so good genes? Too bad, a great opportunity and a chance blown showing what a gifted black man in the US white house could have done for the nation. /Taro

Brumar, First black President and first President with a Muslim family background. This was the wrong guy to be the first black President. Even if he had a "Muslim background" (which he doesn't, not really), that wouldn't disqualify him for president. The problem is that we even had to have a notion of "first black President." It says we're going to tolerate mediocrity just to put someone of color in the White House and alleviate our guilt over the race issue. Why not just the best candidate for President, period? What a quaint concept. We're going to go through this nonsense again with the "first female president." Cause you know, Hillary's qualifications (or lack thereof) and her ethics (or lack thereof) shouldn't matter ... Tenchusatsu
