Why Barack Obama is portrayed in the media as African American and presidential aspirant, while their first joint?

In After the history or the past of Barack Obama, is actually biracial (white and black). Its name comes from Africa, but is only considered a name Muslim when he was named after his father abandoned him and his mother and sister at a young age. Barack and his sister raised by his white mother and his family and grew in Hawaii. Why are so many misunderstandings? I think it is lucky to have obtained as it has from an African Muslim (9-11) the name and color are against him. Only curious what others think of him.

Because of this beautiful country of ours, if you have one drop of black blood in you, you are considered black. No matter how light your skin color is always black, mulatto, mestizo … Therefore, it is black. As for his name and the color was not long ago that going to school out good grades to avoid problems, get a good job and are not afraid of white men. You're a shoe in most circles, especially being a Harvard / Yale / Princeton grad.
