Obama and I are the same race!!!

We gotta be, I mean... His mother is white, SO IS MINE =D seriously folks this whole idea of race where do you draw the line into seperate races? Does darker skin really make someone a different race to me? What about rangas? (red haired people) and bald people with goatees? Or dem gays? My ancestry is Dutch-Irish-Spanish-Turkish and god knows what else, I'm white as a neon nerd but am I latino inside? My nephew is asian looking, does this make him a different race to his blood relative? Discuss! =)

I'm multiracial. Doesn't matter to me.
So yeah! Screw race!

It is a great point that you make. Star and Flag!

I pass for a 'white' guy, but have African, American Indian and Caucasian genes in my makeup.

Those who make a big deal about Obama being 'black' could just as well say that he is 'white'.

bald people with goatees

Hey,I resemble that remark!

My daughters are mixed race.

They identify themselves as Asian because their mother was one.

They also see themselves as Caucasian,because I am.

Obama has been using this race card since he came to the mainland.

You are what influenced you growing up.

There was no black person in Obama's life.

This is part of his problem.

He does not even know who or what he is.

Ever here a average black person speak of eating arugula?

I can't say I am the average black guy, but we call them 'greens'.

Ragnas...

I believe the term you are looking for is Ginger.

Be careful with the 'ginger' stuff.
It is sometimes used as a racial slur.

They've become their own race?

I was confronted with this question early in life, first girlfriend was 1/8 indiginous Australian and I had ignorant adults throwing thier racially based assumptions at me. It was very educational to me in seeing how people think. To me the same thing that made my girl different in terms of appearance was also what made me different to my mother and my brothers, DNA thats too small to be seen with the naked eye and only a small fraction of difference between us. (And I can't wait to see what the rest of that DNA is for)

They haven't become their own race yet, as far as I know.

But the word ginger is an anagram for another word, and ginger has been used derogatorily by some against another race.
