Actually, his father was of mixed ancestry himself (part native Kenyan 
and part Arab), so Barack is more white than anything else.

What many find troublesome, however, is that 99% of black Americans who 
voted did so for Obama, but the press made nothing of it.  If 99% of 
whites had voted for McCain, the press would be bawling about white 
America's racism.

John
