McCain and his many (?) houses.

you know i have to support the military guy man...you know, going to school i went to and all

haha

 

This is true. But Obama is rich and black (correction: mulatto). What does skin color have to do with anything? McCain and Obama are both elitists, and neither could care less about the average, working class American (white or black). They are sure good at pretending they are, though.

 

I'm pretty sure people stopped using the word mulatto 100 years ago.

Between McCain and Obama, I tend to favour Obama.

EDIT: Jee, I dunno what race has to do with it. But every President in US history has been white. I think there's a strong relation to race in that fact.

(fetches the gloves)

 

is that considered racist too now?

it may not be accepted, but it's sure as hell still used...

 

praxis uses it. he is mulatto. it reminds me of mullet though.

 

hahaha, that's great.

although i don't know if a mulatto has ever actually sported a mullet...

 

They use it in DR all the time, only one t though. Mulato, Mulata.

 

My best friend going back to high school is mulatto, and he refers to himself as mulatto. What else would you call a person who is white and black?

 

most of them call themselves black...

 

you call a mix of white and black - whack

he's whack

 

i don't know, i think blight has a certain ring to it too...

 

People not only use it to describe someone who's black and white, at least not in DR, but also to describe a skin tone. I had friends who referred to me as india or mulata, in a loving manner. Though none of my parents is white, I guess my dad is closer to being black, but his mom is not black. I guess we are all mulatos in my family

 

yea, i was thinking of that one too

 

I think people of a particular racial background have a right to self-determination. And Obama considers himself black. You apparently say he's mulatto.

This argument is making my mind drift towards thoughts of Michael Jackson, and that is just wrong...

 

Michael Jackson is an alien, a disturbed one. I thought this was common knowledge.

 

Indeed. I don't really want to go there tonight.

 

So if I choose to not call myself white, is that OK? Instead I'll call myself gooblygobbly.

I don't say Obama is mulatto. He is mulatto. His mother was white and his daddy was black, thus he is mulatto.

Also, I am not so sure Obama calls himself "black." Where did he say this?

 

Can I call you gooblygoobbly?

 

Sure, but only because I like you.

 

According to Obama, he considers himself black. Maybe you'd like to write a letter to him and ask him for an explanation why he calls himself black instead of what you call him.

If my mother was white, my father was Mexican, does that make me Hispanic in America?

Honestly, you are far too quick to assign race to people who have their own unique and individualistic choice to be both Mexican, white or both. Black, white, mulatto, etc. Whichsoever they choose given their heritage.

If you were born of goob Matt, I'd be fine with you calling yourself that. Goober.
