To answer the thread starters question it is clear that Barack Obama is not 100% black, he has a mixed heritage.
About the vid I just think it's typical of how disgusting and unprofessional these presidential races have become. Since it started I have been appalled by some of the backhanded personal shit people have brought up to smear the reputations of the candidates.

I think we're all getting ahead of ourselves here.
These people are American.
What else would expect but this during an election campaign.
That vid is only part of the story. McCain started defending Obama ONLY after the media complained that people in his town hall meetings were saying things like "terrorist" and "kill him" when Obama's name was mentioned.
Sarah Palin also insinuated that Obama does not think like them and does not view America as a country of hope. Some people interperet this as her saying Obama is anti-American. Some say this comment is racist. This has been going on for a while now. Just because that wrinkled-face old bastard appologizes now does not mean harm was not done already.
My comments were mostly about McCains audience and the comments that has been coming from them!!!

lol obviously mcain wont endorse what the woman said, but if the rules were allowed to be changed whereby you may spread rumours about the other candidate negligently, he would put her as vice president.
people are stupid in general.....
white and black...
^ i agree with everything diggy is saying....
We do it for the people.
co-fucking-sign.
john mccain wasn't born yesterday, and isn't so stupid as to not know what him and ms. palin's insinuations meant. they stoked the age-old hatreds in the white lower class, but this time it didn't work - or we will see.

this is the crap i'm talking about that america is still very underline hatred boiling and people need to understand this is a global world,etc we need or should i say they need to learn ignorance will not be tolorated here or anywhere and i feel like it's a bunch of bs because those racist are the reason why we as a globe cannot progress n it's not just here it's all over the world to people hating their own race all of it is deplorable and digusting this is why Nas' album is relivent and why they didn't want him talking about racism, the n word and all of that
yeah. they're getting desperate. I predicted this election to be the ugliest one in the past 100 years, i've been suprised that it's been fairly civil until recently things are deteriorating.
republicans are going for the republican trump card, manipulate dumb white people.
the people that have made up their minds have made up their minds and it's overwhelmingly for Obama. All he's doing is energizing a base that was clearly not going to vote for obama anyways, swing voters and independants aren't voting based on race or else they would have picked the candidate by now cause they've know their races since day 1.
i think the factor racism will have in the election is alot of ppl saying they're for obama and voting for mccain.
that's fine by me. If obama loses, that's cool, it just says america didn't deserve it.
lets be real.
Australia launched a "white australia' campagin during the cold war to invite more white ppl into australia cause there was too many asians.
It wasn't even secert, infact well publicized.
you want to say americans are stupid but in both incidences it's white people being stupid, and white austrialians wouldn't and haven't acted differently from white americans when presented with the same issues.
not by DNA, by culture, this needs to be addressed, by white people.

Did any of you see that black dude last week in McCains audience at a "town house meeting" urging McCain to go after Obama by reminding people of the reverend Wright stuff?
Well, that guy is a talk show host and was on CNN tonight talking about how much attention he has gotten since his McCain appearance. He read an email he has received from someone calling him a SAMBO (LOL). He has even recieved death threats for being a black republican encouraging McCain to go after Obama!!!
I feel the same way about him (the sambo part) and he was the sambo I was refering to earlier. FUCK HIM.
Republicans have done alot of harm, but I don't like the recent things they (bush and friends) have done.
Basically, the republicans play really dirty politics. McCain said he wouldn't, but his tactics are the dirtiest I have ever seen. They have done what some reporters call "race baiting". That is alluding to race and then letting others take it further.
I hope those assholes lose.
