OMG!! Is this true?

I think whether half, a quarter or an eighth does not matter when talking about a "first black president". Obama's skin color is the determining factor here and not lineage. Don't get me wrong, your research may have found accurate details for the ancestry of the before mentioned 6 presidents, however...visually they appeared white. I know that is shallow in retrospect, but believe it or not...many people are not concerned when it comes to the mathematical breakdown of ones ancestry...they just look at the whole package. Don't think that I am defending (for or against Obama). I won't be voting for the man if that is what you are wondering and my reasons are not because of race, ethics or religion. I just don't feel that he is the best man for the job. Bottom line, his views are not my views. Hope that answers your question.
