Where I live Black people can’t stand him simply because he chose to not to identify just BLACK, we all know in Black and White world you can only be one thing even if you are mixed , They still chose to hang on to that one drop BS. You can tell this Man is half Asian he dnt look just Black or Asian because he’s mixed
Yeah. He’s one of the 2% mixed blacks that don’t identify as blacks
fuck off with that ingnorant shit, bitch!!!!!!
mixed people DO NOT have to identify as black just because of that stupid ass outdated “one drop rule”. i honestly don’t give two fucks about what black people think of me not identify as black. like tiger, i say i’m mixed, NOT BLACK. i’m not just black, i’m mixed. y’all can go to hell.
BTW!!! the one drop rule was invented by racist whites, so y’all dumbass black people are still supporting that shit.
He looks very Asian in that photo.
God you’re an idiot. No every white person is conservative or Republican. Who cares if his wife is white? How can you’re behavior be “white”?
he hardly looks european because he’s only an eighth European dumbass.
Why disgusting? Nobody is forced to marry a black woman
or elect Obama. And yes, christian IS an idiot
