Barack in Muslim Garb?

There are other pictures:

My mom and sisters just wore clothing just like this at church on sunday...uh-oh call out the reserves. People dress like this in my neighborhood all the time. i sometimes wonder if people ever leave the confines of their own cozy surroundings to get out and meet people of different cultures in own town, cause alot of the ignorance could be prevented.

I don't need to get over his "blackness", for he really isn't black. He has a mixed ethnicity, white, and black, and of the African heritage that you want to diminish and discount as legitimate for he's not a 8th generation american black (1/2 caucasion)........

I know he's not fluent in ebonics but he has the same "blackness" you declare yourself to have...but he's also caucasion.........

Your argument that my experience with a black woman from africa doesn't live up to your "blackness" is absurd, except of course my wife hasn't mastered ebonics either.

Ok now I think you have to really being making jokes...are you a troll? Cause you couldnt possible be writing this stuff with sincerity.

Now you claim that Barack "really isn't Black"? So now he is of mixed ethnicity...well ok very true. I don't even know what you were talking about with the whole 8th generation black thing ...got my head spinning on that one.

And to clarify....I did not know your wife was from Africa til yuh just said it right now...so how could I ever question her Blackness? And why in the world would your African wife speak ebonics, and now Barack Obama doesn't speak it either....what the heck is ebonics in the first place!! Just cause she's a Black African doesn't mean that she is like Black Americans....we (Black people) have a bit more depth than that. You might as well say the Asian person who is Japanese should understand and speak Chinese....just cause they are Asian and have similar outward appearances? WHAT IN THE WOLRD?!!! Africa is a huge continent, with thousands of tribes and cultures and you just compared your African wife...not even stating her country...to an American, just because her outward skin is Black. Ok so.....what about Blacks in the Carribbean, or UK, or South America who speak spanish......are they less Black or more Black cause they don't speak ebonics...

Cha! Wah yuh feel like? Lawd yuh juss need fi gwaan!

No, I don't claim he isn't black but rather in this situation, being encouraged by the "man crush" and media frenzy have used his alleged "blackness" as a matter of convenience.

Just as Hillary has used her gender.

If you believe that this guy made it this far simply by giving eloquent speeches I have a bridge to sell you!

Further, your "blackness", and others of your ilk that crow the same, really wear on us. The day's where you have to get to the back of the bus has long gone and personally, and frankly, I don't think you, or anyone of your generation can complain in modern times about prejudice for Barack's proof that it simply is non existant.

"African Americans" have simply become passe and your complints marginalized by the likes of Al Sharpton, and others.

My wife, and real Africans suffered far more than you supposed "African Americans" that grew up in middle America.......Quit using your race in political arguments as it's racist.

I personally don't care what he wears. I think the whole thing is silly. I just ran across that and thought I would share it.

[Marlita 1]

OMG!!!!  You have no clue. So now MY Blackness is questionable?! You put it in parenthsis like its not exactly true. So now I'm not a REAL African...well of course I ain't yuh crazy!! I am from AMERICA!! Not AFRICA...get it together please!! And Al Sharpton...haha...don't no body listen to that man....you think I'm stupid or something?!! So now African Americans are passe and don't experience prejudice.  Heck EVERYBODY experiences prejudice....including Blacks!

And this sufferage business.....oh boy....ok so let me go back and have my ancestors suffer a bit more for you...will I then be able to say I'm African American....will i then be able to sit with your wife and the 'Table of Sufferage'?

And please...how am I "racist" just because I say that I am Black.  man...you seriously like to tell people what they are and what they are not don't you. i never dissed any race on here....nevr brought up any other race but my own...what...am I not allowed to do that? To speak about my own race.  Oh, am I not allowed to be African-American either....am I left to being referred to as nothing but a color...Black?

Man! Your too funny! .

I am not even upset at your comments cause the more you speak the more crazed and wacked out you look....its actually quite entertaining

"African Americans" have simply become passe and your complaints fall mostly on deaf ears because of people like Al Sharpton, and others that purport to represent your interests.

Oh I wasn't meaning any disrespect to YOU personally, just to the media and people who keep trying to off Obama merely because of his heritage.

Do you have any argument to the topic of this thread that doesn't dwell on your "blackness"?

Oh my god!

I LOL'd at the idea that there isn't any more racism! You're pretty much unbelievable. Pull your head out of your....hat...and um... take a look around! You've got to be a joke. I refuse to believe there are Americans as frighteningly ignorant as all that.

I am seriously boiling over here. I am so freaking angry. I gotta calm down. It's just a message board. I'm telling myself Kaydee is not real. Just a troll designed to make believe racism and incredible stupidity are still alive and well.

I can never believe someone can be so prejudiced and blind and idiotic and still sling the term "racist" at other people. I've just had it. Can't you get banned for some of the things he's said?

Oh he's real. And apparently involved with some sort of secret high-security-clearance work in the middle-east. If you believe it.

If true, it says a lot about how fcuked up things really are
