Good question. The media (without exception) refers to him as black. But his mother is white. Why isn't he white?
I've wondered this myself. Why does he need to be either one or the other?
Because, at least in this country, with a majority of people being of the "white persuasion" anyone who deviates in clearly visible ways must be non-white. Obama looks black, he's black, and analysis never goes further than that.
And virtually all African Americans are multiracial to at least some extent, thanks to centuries of rape.
