Re: CNN is running a special on Obama's AFRICAN Heritage.
[QUOTE=Devils Horse;375534]President Biden? Well, I just barked up my morning coffee...thanks for that.
Why is being from Africa such a big deal? It's the worst continent on the planet as far as living conditions for human beings. Many countries there are impoverished (real poverty, not the cars and big TV kind of povery we have here) and ruled by corrupt and ruthless 'governments'. Warlords...government repression...starvation...rampant disease...AIDS at epidemic proportions...critters that will kill and eat you.
Seems to me African Americans are pretty lucky those bad things happened to their descendants.[/QUOTE]
AND Obama didn't give a RIP.......NOT ONE Ioda.......about his "African Heritage"...........not until he was elected, that is.

Always felt the same way. Seems society has really embraced the black race and imposed unfounded guilt on us all. I refuse to use terms like african american, asian american, hispanic american etc.. If you want to be treated as equals stop trying to seperate/isolate yourself as a victim.
Re: CNN is running a special on Obama's AFRICAN Heritage.
You will NOW address me as Mr. White......a Irish-Scottish-Apache Indian-German AMERICAN.......**** IT.
Re: CNN is running a special on Obama's AFRICAN Heritage.
Uh Mr. White...I should've said ancestors instead of descendants.
Sorry about that guys. Figured I'd come clean before Andrew stuck me with a gig.
Say, whatever happened to Col Forbin? Did he give up the left wing crusade and stop fighting the dark side? I miss that guy.

I know I kinda feel sorry for poor ole Andrew sometimes, we got the guy out on a limb all by his lonesome. You gotta give the guy credit though he fights a hell of a fight and he's got the tanasity of a Pitbull. Pretty darn good fisherman too.
Re: CNN is running a special on Obama's AFRICAN Heritage.
I agree Mark, ole Andrew can hold up his end of a debate. I sure enjoy scrapping with him.

Now, don't you two be getting all soft and mushy on me now :eek::D

Believe he is spending all his free time changing diapers right now. I miss him too, I could use reinforcements some days :p

After feeding that extra mouth in the family a few years, he'll resurface as a right wing crusader.

[QUOTE=MsgMills;375435]So in true light he a plain black American like I am a plain white American.....when we were both born as natural citizens in America....
I kinda like to think of us all as Americans first. If you all followed my family heritage, I'd be a Norwegian-German-French-Dutch-American.
Call me crazy, but I prefer to measure people by where they are now, not from where they came. And from a human anatomy stand point, we all at one time did come through the same entry way to enter this life........do we refer to each other as V------Americans?
Re: CNN is running a special on Obama's AFRICAN Heritage.
You and I BOTH know why he voted for Obama.......
A: INTELLECT?

Nope, I don't put words in other people's mouths.
Okay second try.......
A: Cause he supported the values that formed his platform? :eek:
