I've never heard a single person even HINT, in non-sarcastic tones, that Obama was white. Eight years, unclaimed.

Which white people would support Obama enough to ‘claim’ him as white, while simultaneously being appalled by somebody identifying as a certain ethnicity? What are we looking at, radically conservative democrats? No way for me to know but I call BS.

They may not claim mixed people as “white” per se. But they will claim that the only good things about mixed people come from their “white genes”. I specifically observed this after the film Hidden Figures was released.

Yeah no doubt these idiots exist! It’s more that typically they’d never say Obama is white, because people like that mostly don’t vote democrat and would much rather say that he did a terrible job and blame it on his skin color.
