Now that the first "mixed race" president is on his way out, he should stop trying to cash in on being the first "black" to hold our highest office. Someday there will be a black man elected, but it was not the day Obama was elected. I think it explains a lot about the man. You can't deny who or what you truly are and feel proud. I agree, race should not matter, however, lying and misleading about your race and views does matter. No wonder his wife hasn't any hope.
