Donald cannot figure out if Kamala is "Black" or "Indian" - how about choice "C", Donald, both!

Were Obama's parents "foreign born academics"? His father was foreign born, but he wasn't an "academic", afaik.

Obama's mother was American and met his father, a foreign student from Kenya, when they were both in college in Hawaii. "Obama's parents met in 1960 in a Russian language class at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, where his father was a foreign student on a scholarship." His mother went on to earn a doctorate. His father was not present in Obama's life: "I didn't really know my father—he left my mother and me when I was two years old, and only traveled from Kenya to visit us once, when I was ten." Obama Sr. left Obama and his mother back in Hawaii and moved to Boston where he got a graduate degree at Harvard and then returned to Kenya in 1964.

well, yes, that's called connecting with your audience as best you can. It's like when Trump goes to a church and pretends to pray or carry a Bible so he can connect with Christians.

But, you wouldn't get that because you are probably not biracial or know any biracial people.

Mom of biracial children, thank you. People have no idea that code switching is very much a part of the culture. It doesn’t have to be because she’s an opportunist.

They went to college. It doesn't make them an "academic". Next thing you know, you'll be calling Trump an academic because he has a college degree.

Obama's father worked for the Kenyan government.

This is the problem with social media. Everyone thinks their opinions are worthy to be shared with the world.

DP. I’m white and I code switch! I have an American parent and a European parent and am bilingual and bicultural. I switch my identities and languages depending on the situation. It would be absurd to suggest that I’m faking any of my identities.

WTF is Foundational Black American? Why should a black candidate have to be “foundational” and a white can be a crazy old felon?

Tariq is a viral personality who humorously captures the non-PC black barber shop and beauty salon zeitgeist. For YEARS he’s been going after privileged blacks from the Caribbean, Africa and Asia who look down on FBAs. He is very big of Foundational Black Americans (FBA) who have ancestors who were enclaved, victims of Jim Crow, etc.

It’s called code switching. Normal.
