While I enjoy your weekly column in the Dispatch, you wrote in today's column the following "...the first black presidential candidate in American history...". I think you'll find this is not the case. Specifically:
FACT 1:
Barack Hussein Obama is not even half black. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side.
FACT 2:
While Barack Hussein Obama's father was from Kenya, his father's family were mainly Arabs. Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African Negro).
FACT 3:
While Obama claims his name is African Swahili, the truth is that his name is Arabic and 'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. 'Hussein' is also Arabic and so is 'Obama'.
FACT 4:
If elected, he would be the first Arab-American President, NOT the first black President.
SPEAKING OF FACTS,
Further, at only 6.25% African Negro, would he even be the first President who was part black? Not at all! Our 3rd President, Thomas Jefferson was our first part-black President. And he's not alone, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge were also part black. President Andrew Jackson was the son of an Irish woman who married a black man. Andrew Jackson was such a high percentage black that his oldest brother was sold as a slave! President Abraham Lincoln was possibly the illegitimate son of an African man, he had very dark skin and coarse hair and his mother also allegedly came from an Ethiopian tribe. His heritage fueled so much controversy that Lincoln was nicknamed "Abraham Africanus the First" by his political opponents. President Warren Harding never even denied claims that he was black, because he had black ancestors between both sets of parents and he attended Iberia College, a school founded to educate fugitive slaves. President Calvin Coolidge was proud of his heritage and claimed his mother was dark because of mixed Indian ancestry. Coolidge's mother's maiden name was "Moor" and in Europe the name "Moor" was given to all blacks just as "Negro" was used in America.
