Barack Hussein Obama is not an African American Candidate,
like I just heard Richard of The Washington Post say on Hardball.
Obama's Dad is from Kenya, that is his birthplace.
Obama is not a descendant of slaves.
Obama does not share his African American's wife background
and so does not have her attitude.
If the reverse were true and Michella Obama were running
for President of the USA and Obama was her partner.
Would anybody be talking about a possible win for Michelle Obama?
Would she even have a chance?
Obama was not ever in "The Hood", he was raised in Hawaii
and attended private schools both in the USA and Indonesia.
Obama paternal grandmother is
still alive and lives in Nyangoma Kogalo village, Kenya.

Obama is not an African American like a Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc.
That is not his background.
