So I was reading people saying the "one drop rule."

Aren't WE ALL BLACK according to the one drop rule?

Mankind came from Ethiopia. Adam and Eve by the rules of Sun Pigmentation had to be Black.

In the context of modern American, we are applying the "bus in Birmingham, Alabama" test. Where would Obama have been told to sit on a bus in Birmingham in 1950? That is the legacy that our politics carry.

I may be jacked up on Mountain Dew, but that's hilarious.

I like my Obama with a fedora and a switchblade cane.

I like my Obama in an orange prison jumpsuit, with a number on his back, and his court papers in his hands outlining all the crimes he was convicted of; mainly selling out his country.

In relation to the "one drop rule" someone mentioned earlier:

Brigham Young (speech in the Tabernacle):

"Any man having one drop of the seed of Cane in him Cannot hold the priesthood ... I will say it now in the name of Jesus Christ. I know it is true & they know it. The Negro cannot hold one particle of Government ... if any man mingles his seed with the seed of Cane the only way he Could get rid of it or have salvation would be to Come forward & have his head Cut off & spill his Blood upon the ground. It would also take the life of his Children." (Wilford Woodruff's Journal, Vol. 4, p. 97)

Can you name what crimes he's committed worthy of being put on trial for? :confused:
