I don't believe that involves a feeling of racism, that was my only point. I think if his father was from Sweden these people would be making the same claim, regardless of his color. I personally am proud that we have elected a true African American as President. I think it was a huge statement as to who far we have come as a nation. Even if I don't agree with 75% of his policy.
