I don’t care what her heritage is. I know she is supposed to be African American and its pretty obvious that no sub saharan African group is as light as she is or has similar features. But all that is pointless as to that one comment because Barr knew that she is supposed to be African American.
Any specifics about her background are irrelevant to the issue.
And you will or should have noticed that I said I read about one grandparent who was supposed to be African American. I said nothing about the race or ethnicity of the other grandparents.
^^^ This x 1000. I mean have we really gotten to that point now? At one point people made no bones about their racism. Then the PC culture came along and people started getting rightfully shunned for being racist. Now in an effort to excuse their racism they take a person say something racist about them and then say well it doesn’t really count because I have decided they aren’t really of the race I was being racist towards.
■■■? This is the same ■■■■ they did to Obama, I remember on the old board where people were saying he wasn’t black either.
“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” Biden said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
Harry Reid, SENATE MAJORITY LEADER not some entertainer said, “that Obama, as a black candidate, could be successful thanks, in part, to his “light-skinned” appearance and speaking patterns "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.” and was given a complete pass by the left.
