The Sippery Slope of Blackness/Whiteness
If President Obama had married a white woman and had fathered some kids with HER, those kids would have exactly the same amount of African DNA as Zimmerman's mother and uncle. At what point does a person cease being black? That is what I would like to know. Based upon the reactions in the Martin-Zimmerman case, I would probably go, somewhere between Obama (1/2 black) and Zimmerman (1/8 black).

Interesting musings. I know this is not your obsession: you are just turning the tables on the racists (on this issue, all left-wing) who are obsessed with the skin color of those in the Trayvon Martin assault case.... bigots who are judging the matters not on the facts, but on their own prejudices based entirely on the supposed race of those involved.
Actually, and I suppose this is simply a rhetorical question, who gives a rat's ass? For those who do I simply ask, WHY?
I mean somewhere down the road verybody will be some shade of Brown on the color spectrum.
And the slipper slope of non-Nativeness. In a heated debate on another blog with an advocate of Native American rights who despises GZ. He argues that GZ isn't native at all, and that he is pure white, and uses the Census form questions (instead of genealogy) as his justification.
