People who keep going on about Obama not "legally" being an "African-American" are cracking me up. Supposedly, a "legal African American" is someone who is the descendant of Africans brought to the US to be slaves--the definition of which excludes Obama, as if the concept made sense in the first place and meant something.
Here's a quandary for all you hair-splitters on things that don't matter: since my mother is an American descendant of Africans brought to the US to be slaves but my biological father is an African, does that make me "half African-American?"
Please tell me 'yes' so I can mock you.
