[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I don’t agree with Trump or any Republicans for that matter about anything, it’s fair to ask why the Democratics can't offer actual "Foundational Black Americans" as candidates instead of elite children of foreign-born academics.[/quote] Were Obama's parents "foreign born academics"? His father was foreign born, but he wasn't an "academic", afaik.[/quote] 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. [/quote] 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.[/quote]
