His comment is NOT racist, it is simply dicking out the media.
I personally don't give a flying frig whether he is black, white, orange, purple, gay, straight, hell, as long as he speaks english I don't object! My only issues are with the media making it an enormous deal. woohoo we have a president with african-american heritage, we can have a big deal made next time because the next president will be left handed.
I would have hoped that our society had passed this "color" crap 50 years ago, but this is a prime example at why we're sitting in the clusterfook we're in. People don't learn.
I'm not being racist, I'm not being insensitive, I'm not being a bigot. Flame away, since someone will find something in what I wrote to bitch about. Good Night.

EXACTLY, they are setting everything back YEARS.
The honorable thing to do would be elect the man and NOT EVEN mention his heritage. THAT IS SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. I personally find it condescending, ingratiating and insulting for the way he is being treated.
This is not What MLK dreamed of. Equality means no differentiations. He has been regailed due to his color.
Show him some respect. Stop calling him black. Mr. President will suffice.
