"We were always playing on the white man's court -- by the white man's rules. If the principal, or the coach, or a teacher wanted to spit in your face, he could, because he had the power and you didn't. The only thing you could choose was withdrawal into a smaller and smaller coil of rage."
Obama once described the white race as "that ghostly figure that haunted black dreams."
"That hate hadn't gone away," he wrote, blaming "white people -- some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives."

During college, Obama disapproved of what he called other "half-breeds" who gravitated toward whites instead of blacks. And yet after college, he once fell in love with a white woman, only to push her away when he concluded he would have to assimilate into her world, not the other way around.

BTW...If you learn to correctly spell "racist" perhaps you will better understand what constitutes a racist.

There is nothing wrong with people being proud of their ethnicity but there is a problem when they believe it supersedes their nationality. As Abraham Lincoln boldly stated, "A house divided against itself cannot stand," perfectly explains why people deciding it is more important to be African American, Irish American, Mexican American, Native American than it is to be an AMERICAN is both dangerous to the nation and self-defeating to those who label themselves.
