Your business is cleaning toilets. You are an ignoramus of the first order.You are pretty freaking ignorant if you didn't know that.I did not recognize that description as applying to Dred Scott v Sandford.
Actually I still don't since the case said nothing like what was claimed.
"Historically impotent"?? I think you mean yourself. And historically ignorant to boot.
My business is history, Flipper.
And yes, Dred Scott said that EVEN FREE BLACK MEN WERE NOT CITIZENS.
The Dred Scott decision declared that Free Blacks could never be citizens, nor were they EVER citizens.
Anyway, Obama is not black in the sense that, e.g. Jesse Jackson is black. Jackson's family had a personal history of Jim Crow, possibly even slavery. Most black families in America have family memories of these events. Obama does not. He has no cultural affiliation to blacks through shared experiences and in fact identifies more with the white educational elites who inhabit universities on each coast.
I believe hes experiencing it now.
