HO, what you are saying is true in theory, but not in reality. BO is not the first half-black half-white person in American history...so we have plenty of precedents to look to. As unfortunate as it is, the people in his position have long been labeled and treated as black...many times to their extreme detriment. It's just the way it has been in our culture.
That I understand, I just don't know why it's that way. It's not just a white thing though, cause blacks see it that way also. I just don't get nor understand why that is.

Perhaps Paul's instructions to slaves and to Onesimus would be appropriate in this context.

I still hold to that, But I can pray for a man who is destined to carry out an opposing Agenda, hoping that he might hear God's voice and turn to the Lord!

I corrected your typo and edited my post to reflect that. I believe you have your answer.
And that lady doesn't know the words to our National Anthem!!!!
