Obama is our first Biracial President. He is a first generation African American truly, not a muti-generation Black American.
But he will be our new President and we all need to support him as he has a very difficult job ahead. I pray that he keeps Americans and democracy as a priority and does not secumb to other standards. We are Americans regardless of race. Let’s maintain that standard.

The fact that Obama is “literally” African-American is truly irrelevant. It does, however; make a powerful statement about the the progression of our society and how our generation thinks. What got him to the where he is now is his message and his ability to inspire.

Ok, you say he is African American
Well then what should we call George Washington, the first British president,
I take offense to labeling people African, Jewish, Irish, French, European, Iraq, Sudan, Asian, Cajun,or Iranian American and so on, that were born in the USA
How can you not be a native to the country you are born in, I was born in the USA, my birth certificate labels me as a caucasian, well I guess that just a mix breed, so thats the same thing Obama is a mix breed caucasian.
Well most people will call him African American and labels don’t seem to bother most people, so I guess I’m the odd ball.
One day when we can except we are US American born in our native land and no longer associate ourself with our great grandparents mother land , we will then unite as a people.

John — Obama is African American. He is both white and black. Being that he is black and no other president-elect in United States his was, he is the first African American president-elect. I believe that is the significance.

@obama not black:

If Obama had been the republican candidate, and had won by an OVERWHELMING majority, than you might have an argument.

But A) he did not win by an overwhelming majority, B) the majority of blacks typically vote democrat (just like the majority of whites typically vote republican) so they would have voted for him even if he was white, and C)while I’m sure there were plenty of people voting for his “color”, I’m sure there were just as many, if not more, were voting against it.

Get a clue, if you really believe what you’re saying, then I have no doubt that you believe he shouldn’t have been elected based on his race.

Let’s just get past the politically correct way to refer to him and hope that “Change” turns out to be more than a cleverly-timed- Madison-Avenue-buzz-word that turns out to have actual meaning behind it…and for the highest good would be nice.
