The First Black President of the USA! But also the Ninth President of the USA of Welsh Descent!
I am in tears because of both facts.
Wales should proud that one of our boys is the first African American President of the USA.
His paternal ancestry is in Kenya, but his maternal ancestry is in Wales!
He is the first African American President, but let us not forget that he is also the Ninth President of Welsh descent too!
I didn't know about the Welsh descent.
ReplyDeleteWhy are you so happy shedding tears of joy? Pathetic. Save the celebrations until after he (if he does) improves the lives of ordinary Americans and stops the US from invading and bullying other countries. And he is not black....he is of mixed race.
ReplyDeleteEven if Obama turns out to be the worst president in the history of the USA, he has already made a difference by getting himself elected as the first black president, something that would have been thought of as impossible just 10 years ago. By forcing McCain to select a woman VP candidate to counter his equality appeal he has also made a huge difference to the cause of gender equality in the USA.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that racists feel the need to insult him by saying that he is NOT black is an achievement in itself. If you had read the post before making your pathetic and bitter comments you would know that I am very aware of his racial mix "His paternal ancestry is in Kenya, but his maternal ancestry is in Wales! "
Really! How wonderful! I shall boast of that too.
ReplyDeleteSo, if he turns out to be another GWB or even worse....it doesn't matte because it will be compensated by the fact that he's Black or of mixed race or whatever.....pathetic. You are the racist one for referring to his colour either nagatively or otherwise. They are 2 sides of the same coin.

Which is as significant as your paternal and maternal ancestry beginning in Africa.
The man's skin colour has nothing to do with his ability to carry out his duties.
You also said....
"Wales should proud that one of our boys is the first African American President of the USA."
For goodness sake, give us a break!!!
You'll be telling us next that his Presidency is as a direct result of his vague welsh connections. Quite pathetic really.
