You know, I read on some other article that, I believe was foreverserenity who said it, all it takes is one drop of Black in our gene's to make a person completely Black (not in those words exactly).

The picture above is me (handsom looking fellow isn't he?). If someone can point to me where I am completely Black, i would appreciate it, because my Grandfather (my moms dad) was a Black man. Black slaves existed in Puerto Rico at on time as well and so my family has a mix of Native Puerto Rican Idian, Spaniard and African.

If I was to run for President, would that make me the first Spaniard-African-Puerto Rican Indian President if I won? Would that even matter? Not to me, i would be working for all my fellow American citizens regardless of skin color, origin, culture or sex.

 

My comment Charles, was in reference to what is said here, in America, that is the first thing I learned when I came here, and what I have not been proven to forget.  Like it or not, that's a legacy that is with this country, and one that many of us are trying to change, even if it's flame get stoked often. 

Damn!  You wrote an excellent follow up (that I wish I had written) to my article!  Very well said!

If those on the left cannot accept the fact I did not vote for Obama, that he IS my president, and that I expect (actually want as I expect him to screw things up - not because of his tan, but because he is a liberal) him to fix things the right way (not paper over them), then they can go live in Zimbabwe.  I understand it is exactly to their liking there - if you live that is.

Why thank you Doc!

Just interested, where did you come here from?  I haven't exactly experienced blacks embracing each other as black because they have "even a drop" of black blood.  In college I heard a lot of people not being "dark enough" to be a "brotha/sista".  I've also been told that black people can, under no circumstances, be considered racist because they are the oppressed ones...bull flop!  Racism comes in all colors.

CharlesCS, you are a handsome guy.  Truly, we supposedly all originally came from Africa.  I have a Great Great Grandmother who was native American so I guess I better start getting some casino money!

Boy, if you do become President, that's going to be a mouthful to say!

 

I'm disappointed more don't have things to say about this
