Some people are trying to live up to Martin Luther Kings vision of judging a person not by the color of their skin but the content of their Charecter. You say Obama is black but I believe he's black and white 50% each color. What matters is who he is and what he represents rather than what he looks like.
The USA is a melting pot of many races. That is one thing that makes us special from most of the world. Instead of trying to create separation many in the black community need to become Americans not African Americans. They need to love this country for giving them opportunities to achieve things in life that people in Africa can only dream of. They need to put the past behind them, quit blaming whites for their problems and accept responsibility for their own actions, role up their sleeves and get to work like everybody else in this country.
