So...people are only black if their family came directly to America from Africa? Being enslaved in other countries first means they aren't black?
And if you're mixed-race, and you don't count as being any of those races?
And no mixed race person should become president because you're taking away the chance for a single race person to be the first of that race to be president? And I think they forgot there was already a black president. Or are they saying the first woman president should be white so they don't take away the ability for a white person to be the first woman president since black people already got a first?
Was Obama the first black president? He's half white, I don't remember which race he picked on mixed race choosing day.
Kamala Harris' father is black but her mother isn't, therefore she isn't black.
Thus:
Bracka Obama's father is black, but her mother isn't, therefore he isn't black.
And we need to make sure Republicans know that Obama is white for the same reason Harris isn't black from now on.
I see you places. And it makes me smile every time for the most part. 💜👌
Thank you!
Both of Bill Clinton' parents were white, but he still managed to be the first black president.
The presidential race apparently. Twice.
I just facepalm every time someone says, "but her dad is from Jamaica!" Like slavery didn't exist there.
