What percent Black is Obama?...Originally Posted by JCO
What I don't understand is??? Was he born in Africa? Why use the term African American... If he was actually born in Hawaii, then He is all American. Does he hold citizenship in Africa as well? Either you are all American (whether you are born here, or you immigrate here legally), or you are not. It's that simple. American is not a race, it is a nationality, and I grow tired of people using it as a race. After all, you can be 100% African and still be white or (Caucasian, whatever that means). When people use the term African American, it is racist and unpatriotic! It suggest that being an American alone is not good enough, somehow, they need to turn it into a race to make it good enough to describe them.Originally Posted by Yahoo Answers
Also, since we all descended from Adam (if you believe that way) then, we all should use the term Adamian Americans? or, if you believe that we all descended from cavemen, then Neanderthalian Americans? This is just ridiculous.
As Paul Harvey would say: WAKE UP AMERICA!
