  • @skoi87 out of 394 IRA members,366 were catholic and 3 were protestant. The other 25 were foreign. I think "alot" is an overstatement.

  • he is also old english from his mother's family to some of the earliest settlers in Massachusetts at the time of the Pilgrim Fathers. Direct ancestors in Sutton in Ashfield, Notts, or Stapleford, a village just outside Cambridge. Also he keeps quiet that his ancestor Edward Fitzrandolph family are descended from Nottinghamshire his ancestry can also be traced to William the Lion, who ruled Scotland from 1165 to 1214. He plays up the "Oirish" vote thats all with an election coming up.

  • He plays up the irish-american vote he has more English roots on his mothers side than anything else but keeps that bit quiet.

  • why do people care about what he is? there are so many different people from different countries and ancestors in the U.S. like me personally my great great grandparents came from Ireland, Germany, Sweden, Russia, and my great grandma is Native American.. i dont claim to be anyone of these, just American but its not cus i dont like your countries, i just think i would be ignorant for me to say im Irish or im German if ive never lived there.

  • Obama screws Ireland out of 30billion Euros. Irish Examiner, Tuesday, May 24, 2011

    Economist Morgan Kelly claimed that the president’s treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner,(Jewish) had vetoed an EU bid to let Ireland "burn" bond-holders to the tune of €30 billion last November as part of the bailout deal.

    Obamas advisor shot down the move during a phone conference of finance chiefs from the G7 group of the world’s biggest economies, thus gravely weakening the Irish fiscal position, said Kelly.

  • @sgt365

    You have fun with that

  • Obama can go fuck himself. That's all I have to say.

  • @foxhoundwill

    Fuck yourself first with a pencil, fucking imbecile 

  • He dosen't look at Irish at all

  • Irish roots? you mean his feet are white?

  • Why Elin Krantz Was Murdered watch?v=kftWhl00Qgk

  • @thevster1603 I agree with you.

  • Barack, a shining example of why black isn't always beautiful.

  • The latest conspiracy theory?

    The president's real name is Barry O'Bama.

  • His all ready here, D.

    The organised trip to make me tired has failed. haha what a waste of a trip on my behalf. The fall of the empire is close at hand.

  • obama is half african and half caucasian simple as that

  • My cousin in America painted an Irish flag on his car because his father claimed some far connection with Ireland. Father name Davidson (sound English to me) and he also knew for a fact his mother was English as she only moved there the year he was born. They all think they are Irish it is comical.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 Davidson is actually Scottish in origin. It is comical the way Americans view Ireland as some romantic never never land full of leprachauns. Still brings in lots of tourists dollars. The natives fleece them nicely.

  • @jacksbacksucker - I had a friend from Northern Ireland that went to the US and when people asked him where he was from he said Northern Ireland and they would say "Brits out" of something. He would point out he was a protestant and they would just stare at him.

    Obama is just going for the Irish vote. His mums name Dunham which is an English village. I wonder if he will go there next week - no votes in that so i guess he will keep his British roots a secret.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 Well one of the first things Barack did, when he got into the White House, was remove a bust of Winston Churchill that had been a gift from Great Britain, and had been there since after the war. Obama's hatred of the British is well-known, well-documented, and shameful. He is a disgrace to the American people and brings shame on the USA. You only have to read his books, to see that he considers the British as responsible for his father's treatment in Kenya.

  • @sooupdragon

    The British military in the 1950s & 60s committed crimes against humanity- an example of which is the well documented murder, mutilation, torture, castration and internment of people merely suspected of involvment in the Kenya Independence movement-A victim of which was Obama's Great Grandfather. Read up on 'Britian's Gulags' and petition your British government to, at the least, apologise and compensate the survivors of these atrocities.

  • @marmaladekamikaze None of that was actually proven, a few testimonies from old men who are looking for compensation in their old age, hardly qualifies as evidence. The alleged atrocities were supposedly committed by black Africans anyway. Why should Obama have such a hatred of the British? The US government practically exterminated 99.9% of the Native American population, if he wants to hate racism and imperialist history, he can look to US history for that.

  • @sooupdragon He hates the british!...... you mean the country had to fight for its freedom against.!. oh no....what are you soft on historical intelligence?

  • @jimmy27paul Nope - perhaps you'd prefer it if the Spanish or French had been more successful at colonizing North America, than the British. If you read more history, you'd know that the British influence in the New World was positively benign compared to what the Spanish did.

  • Obama the puppet I guess he is done getting the black vote and now he is trying to win some of them white people vote. Claiming to be Irish hahahahah. Yea and I am 1/4 Roman. Americans only see what they want to see. I guess good for America so happy hope he wins a second term hahahahahah.

  • So what is he just highlights his Irish heritage, it's politics, and it's good to let us have our moment in the sun, to actually find out someone famous or a decent politician is a small part of us.

  • woot i love been'n irish woot woot!

  • irish, english same thing.

  • @AnonHateMachine dare ya to come over here and say that to us

  • @AnonHateMachine looooooooooooooool we're nothing alike

  • @PiratesAndCowboys Actually they're not that distant

  • @AnonHateMachine you sick bastard even mentioning those two words in the same sentence. sick sick sick :) 'english and proud'

  • No it's not like calling someone who is 1/64 black ancestry african american as Obama is alot more Irish than 1/64..I did a bit of research and Obama is more Irish than 1/32 Irish too...look up his family tree, it gives a list of Obama ancestors and many of his English ones have Irish surnames, his grandmother AND grandfather was of Irish ancestry..not just his grandfather..this Kearney ancestor of Obama's is on his grandfathers side and is only in the limelight because there's more documents

  • Comment removed

  • You Irish A Holes have nothing to be proud about! Your nothing but the majority of homo's and race mixers!

  • It makes me laugh that why would 36million Americans claim to be Irish. There are only 4.6million people living in Ireland I think Americans need to be proud to be American and stop all this Italian French Irish and European ancestary thing cause most Americans are nothing like us and as a matter of fact most Irish people find them really annoying and arrogant !!! And fact is They can only come here on a 3month holiday visa and then have to leave so go figure !!!

  • @SkullCrusherer: 'Irish people are great for the most part'? U stupid cunt what the Fuck do u know? Most Irish cunts I've met are shit! Fuck em!

  • He's more English than Irish. Much more. Like many people who claim to be 'Irish'.

  • @jovialduke i agree he has more english heritage but is playing the irish voters to vote for him

  • @uarecheap-No more like the Irish are claiming Obama is Irish when it's clear He's as African as Africans can be!

  • Comment removed

  • Obama the Puppet claiming to be Irish. It suits him. The politicians over here in Ireland love helping the Banksters and Corporations like him!

  • @dyroy1 Jews are a target in Europe? Not really... Americans are.

    But you're right. Life is too short to hate

  • @lukeh5678: Eh, u uneducated cockmuncher, cos He has a very distant connection 2 that shithole it makes Him Irish? He's African u Fuckin muppet!

  • yeah fuck this i hate this irish people are such poor,hungry, fail... thats the word there a fail they cant do anything they coul... oh omg ok irish people are fuking weird they claim obama is irish what the fuck its because there country is so fucking shyte they have nothign to be proud of so they go and do this shyte wtf dirty fairy gays

  • lukeh5678: Obama is African and has more English blood than supposed Irish which was bred out of Him over 150 yrs ago! So because He's got an Irish connection that makes Him Irish does it? U r another uneducated twat!

  • i'm mostly anglosaxon and danish viking yorkshire on my mother side and iberian on father side i look textbook viking with blue eyes brown fair hair small nose blonde mustache and chin long headed oval shape round chin broad shouldered you don't see spanish in me itake after my mother side and i feel more british then spanish

  • @celtic4ever18 on my family tree i got norse surnames yorkshire is anglo scandinavian

  • obama is 3 & irish i'm 6 %

  • @IrisHBol97-I also lived there for a significant period of time so I am well equiped to voice the facts not lame narcissistic opinions! Obama is African and English-any irish blood would've been bred over 150yrs ago!

  • @IrisHBol97-First of all, I am not a Frenchman and second, I have had an excellent education!

  • @Napoleonkuryakin An excellent education does not imply you have an excellent insight into whether someone is Irish or English or American

  • @JOHNsderry- Ireland 'lovely place'? It is if you're white and irish! It's a shit hole of a place if you're Black or English or both! Racist country to the core , inbred too !

  • @Napoleonkuryakin Racist? Yes we are

    Inbred, you're taking that out of your ass

  • U mean African blood that has been fucked up by Irish blood? The term rape comes from the slave master forcing himself on 'His property', the term 'lynching' is derived from the Irish!

  • @Napoleonkuryakin Give me proof of this

  • Obama is Not Irish thank fuck, the only connection is a 6th great, great, great uncle!

    Not a drop of irish in His veins though I'm chuffed that He's a Blackman leading another bigoted country of inbred rednecks- their blood must be boiling! Ha Ha!

  • HOW ABOUT Im FULL IRISH AND STILL LIVE IN IRELAND!lovely place?

  • Im 100 % irish :)

  • Barrak O'Bama

  • Obama  mother Surname is english.

  • its cool to be 1/16th irish and have irish ancestors but i'm mostly english and spanish

  • i'm 1/16th irish

  • 1/3rd irish grandmothers full

  • i'm two times more irish then obama

    he'0s 1/32th i am 1/16th

  • @celtic4ever18 muhammad Ali is twice as Irish as you (he's 1/8th)...haha the irish practically shagged everything which is why alot of non-irish people can trace some Irish ancestry in their family background...randy feckers haha

  • @ismaithleat ok cool muhamad ali twice then me but still irish

  • The Irish claim is just a publicity ploy. John McCain has an Irish surname, so why didn't any journalist blow the trumpets at his Irish ancestry? Because McCain isn't "cool". Obama is. Irish is a "cool" ethnicity and so is Cherokee, so let's tag Obama with these two. Obama's page on his family history is starting to look ridiculous. His cousins to the 4th degree are being listed! I'm curious to see which journalist will be the first to trace his linage back to Jesus Christ himself!

  • Why do americans do this? Have English surnames, English ancestors and then refer to themselves as Irish... The whole American census from 1980 to today just shows a complete dive in the Anglo-American population. I don't understand it....

  • @Eireangloiberian88 totaly agree with you most Americans ive met had either an English German name the Anglo American number has dropped by a good 25 million in the last 20 years how ever most people who answered as simply American are believed to be of old English ancestory the 08 census was the most inaccrate in american history ive no doubt theres a lot of Irish Americans but just looksing at imogration numbers and previous censuses there cant be as many as German or English

  • @deadeye012006 even then a lot of irish americans have scots irish surnames which arnt irish names

  • Muslim born in Kenya.

  • irish roots- hmmmmmmmmm, what will the theatrical preformances of michehe. lets play happy familys at the whitehouse...hahahaha.........­..........

  • Funny how he doesnt highlight the fact that his Mother is mostly of English heritage and instead highlights his Irish heritage to win Irish American votes. It's just politics guys.

  • yeah pretty typical of him i get the feeling he dosent like England coz appeantly when he took office he removed a bust of Churchill from the oval office which should offend alot of ppl even former american preidents when it has been there for years and years if he loves his irish roots so much maybe he should go over and live in bloody ireland

  • @charlieiscool1000 he is mostly english he should be proud of england

    he's only 3 % irish

  • @StPierreGSP obama 3 % irish

    i am 6 % irish like his mother

  • @StPierreGSP its because no one wants to be of english heritage

  • @123hahaurdead Why??

  • @StPierreGSP I think its just cause the Irish are a friendly bunch lol

  • i have one great great grandfather Irish from Northern Ireland county Armagh

  • i am 1/16th Irish thats 6,25 %  in my Blood also English 43,75 % and Spanish 50 %

  • i have irish roots too from northern ireland

  • God damn NWO Puppet.

  • God=Irish

    Irish=God

  • haha good 1 mate

  • Fuck me Obama claims so many links to various races what is he the result of one big gang bang, surprised he didn't through Martian in there to cover all his bases...

  • no, its definently muslim

  • Obama needs to cut the shit he can't be Irish, Black, Asian, Muslims, Jewish and Christian.

  • lol just put a apostrophe after the O and your good to go.

  • we just gotta find OBama an ' so after his O then he'll b good 2 go

  • I like him <3

    My Fav President of the USA so Far cause he is realy sweet..

    unlike Bush.

  • Obama's great great great grandfather was an Irishman who emigrated to America during a time of mass emigration and if he didn't Barack Obama would not exist.

    These are simple facts and the racist comments posted on here show how many brain-dead neanderthals there are out there.

    And lets be honest here, if his ancestors came from where those morons come from they would of course be claiming him as their own.

  • But 1/32 Irish ancestry is not a significant contribution to his overall genetic makeup. Princess Diana had some very distant Armenian ancestry. Should the Armenians thus be claiming her as their own? Obama also claims to have Native American (Cherokee of course! What else?) ancestry. It's funny how people like Obama and Clinton who claim Irish ancestry also have a habit of claiming Native American ancestry as well. One's DNA is not something that can be purchased at your local Wal-Mart.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 i'm 1/16th Irish ancestry is not a lot isn't it ?

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 yeah he is 3 % irish

    i am 6,25 % irish

    muhammad ali is 12;% irish

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 obama is 3 % irish muhammad ali 12 % irish

    me  6 % irish

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 you are right i'm 1/16th irish 6,25  %

  • ROMAN, you need to understand that MOST African-AMERICANS are an amalganation of several ethnic groups. Due to the slave trade, wars, subsequent conquest, etc MOST African-Americans have some, albeit maybe not in some instances, acertainable amounts of Native American blood. That said, there are lots of African-Americans who have Irish heritage.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 It seems that in America it is exactly like that, so what?...a melting pot of people is surely going to result in people who are descended from MANY MANY places....so why does the fact Obama is of Irish ancestry offend you?...and go back 800-1000 years and Obama has THOUSANDS of Irish ancestors..same with Clinton and muhammad ali...who honestly cares?..Obama is forever connected to Ireland regardless

  • @MyMadra Did I say it offended me? It doesn't. I just think it's silly that Americans are making such a big deal about him having 1/32 Irish ancestry. If he were a tourist in Dublin touting his 1/32 Irish ancestry, how many locals would be hailing him as their brother across the Atlantic? Zero. He's not a part of the Irish American community, he only mentions his Irish ancestry when it suits his goals and campaigns, no one in America considers him Irish and he himself probably doesn't either.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 Irish american community? ha shut up ya spanner ye...us Irish would claim Obama over any fecking average day yank who claims to be Irish anyday...since Obama is someone of importance with proven Irish ancestry...stop going on about shite with mentioning an Irish american community..you are yanks pure and simple living in a yanky community..whether you like it or not Obama is an Irish american...an Irish american aswell as a kenyan american, an english american too

  • @MyMadra Wow. That's impressively bad grammar. Obama can't be an Irish American because he doesn't identify himself as one. He identifies himself as an African American and nothing else. I have more Irish ancestry than he does, but I don't identifiy myself as an Irish American. Has anyone the right to tag me as one besides myself unless I choose to do so? Obama has that same right. Don't force him to be Irish when he obviously doesn't want to.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 oh wow I didn't put capitals on words I should have God shoot me now! lol...cop on....Idnetity has nothing to do with it..fact is Obama isn't just an African american, his heritage goes back to Kenya, Ireland, England etc...he's not even predominantly African..he's a typical yank, meaning he's all mixed with several different ancestral countries..Obama identified as an African-American to secure the black vote...use your head...the fact people call halfbreeds black is stupid

  • @MyMadra Even if he doesn't identify himself as an African American, he's universally known as the first African American president. He may not be predominantly African, but his father was fully African. His mother was predominantly English, yet nobody even considers him to be an English American. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I was busy with things in real life.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 Not surprisingly, America is a country of ignorance where if society says a man who OBVIOUSLY is a halfbreed is black, they just conform and nod their heads...Obama never was and never will be a black man in terms of his genetics..he's still classed as one of the 24 presidents of Irish heritage and he is one of the irish presidents besides kennnedy and Jackson who has the most Irish ancestry

  • @MyMadra Are you seriously suggesting that he's more Irish than African?! With a father from Kenya?! He had ONE great-great-great grandfather from Ireland. Does that make him as Irish as Kennedy, whose eight great-grandparents were all Irish, or Jackson, who was the son of Irish immigrant parents?!

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 eh...when did I say that you silly arse?...I said he's not black therefore the black americans and white americans should stop calling him that when clearly he's only half black...since when does a half equal a whole, or are fractions a little out of your grasp?...either way he's still of Irish blood and out of the 24 presidents of Irish blood Obama is the third most Irish out of them

  • @MyMadra Firstly, name calling just shows a lack of intelligence on your part. Secondly, you say he's the third most Irish president? So, having one great-great-great grandfather from Ireland makes him more Irish than Woodrow Wilson, whose paternal grandparents were Irish immigrants, or Ronald Reagan, whose great grandparents were Irish immigrants?

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 No it doesn't, many of the greatest minds in the world name called, such as darwin for example. ..Wilson isn't an Irish name therefore doubt his paternal grandparents were fully Irish...and I never heard of them being half Irish by blood as you claim they are..fact of the matter is the fact Obama is connected to MY country bothers you for some reason, maybe it's because you just want to label him as black kenyan?..but halfbreeds are not black

  • @MyMadra Oh, well if you've never heard of it, then it must not be true. Please don't be silly. It would have taken you all of five seconds of a Google search to find high quality sources listing their ancestors and where they were born. And you know everything about Wilson's ancestry based on his surname? Even if his grandparents weren't "fully Irish", he'd most likely be more Irish than Obama, who's only 1/32 Irish, having grandparents from Ireland.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 An English ancestror of Obama's married an Irish woman and this couple moved to America after..this was no relation to Kearney thereby proving Obama is more than 1/32 Irish...look it up, along with the various Irish surnmes in his family history

  • @MyMadra Plus, I never labeled Obama as a black Kenyan. I was simply saying that that's how most people see him. I'm simply saying that calling him Irish because of one great-great-great grandfather is silly. It's like labeling someone with 1/64 black ancestry as African American or saying that someone whose great-great-great-great-grandf­ather was Choctaw could enlist as a tribal member.

  • @HolyRomanEMperor90 epic way of saying it

  • i hope your kidding or black. if you aren't fuck you.

  • wow this is retarded even by american standards

  • Do any of you people know how to spell?

  • barack obama is half indonesian

  • what a shithead

  • Barrack my claim to be Irish, As my grandma would have said, he's Burnt Irish

  • He's also related to George Bush--no shit!

  • our culture is already lost here in ireland. the growing emigrants is killing me

  • ye it is! more like poland then anything else!

  • thats fuckin bullshit hes makin fun of the irish culture obama is not fuckin irish its fuckin african

  • The last name "Obama"came from africa,not ireland.

  • oh by the way OBAMA RULES haha

  • no everyone thinks dey are irish because we are beasts, an dey want t be us ha

  • lol every body is Irish because we are a bunch of horn dogs we bang any thing and every thing that moves

  • i am irish and proud Tiocfaidh ar la

  • Does anybody know what thegas4free.blogspot,com is that Obama has been talking about?

  • My Irish friend at college often made endearing jokes about Obama's last name by spelling it "O'Bama" or calling him "Barry O'Bama". Lol. But it is true that Obama has Irish roots on his mother's side and Luo Kenan roots on his father's side. Then he has a half-Asian half-sister and godparents and black and white cousins.

    I think it's wonderful because it's like he's a representative of the multiethnic nature of America wrapped into one man. All he needs now is some Latino and Arab relatives.

  • great comment.............

  • Well said.

  • ireland :D

  • Haha

  • I love my irish country

  • black is just a skinn color... MOST IRISH PPL HAVE ROOTS TO SPAIN FRANCE AND GERMANY....

  • i notice some England pussy comments, Ireland is beautiful country but many had to leave for America because you English pussy's killed them and took there the land and starved them, and the Irish in America just like to remember there roots you England faggots so leave them alone.

  • Ha, you ignoramus, and what about the large numbers of Irish that went to Britain not the USA. My own great grandfather was from Mayo and as none of my family have bred with an African you can tell I have some Irish blood. Blue Eyes, very dark hair, pale skin, sister a redhead. Like millions of other Brits with some Irish ancestry. (Although these traits could have equally came from our Brit ancestors. As both countries have the same ethnic origins). Obama looks about Irish as an eskimo.

  • the english arnt the same people as the scots and irish or the welsh for that matter

  • Obama is irish but what the f was dat at the end

  • too fuckin rite

  • FU Racist fuck

  • Why does this fake ass Obumba count as Irish,he is about how many generations from Ireland,30,who knows,and his daddy was Kenyan .if he is Irish,I am the president of Ireland ,

  • lawl

  • The Irish over there? They're not Irish! It pathetic!

  • everybody in america claims there irish soon the birds there will to

  • barrack obama african mostly english then swiss german scottish other us presidents ulster protastants who are ulster proddys english scottish settlers you need a history lesson go to wikipedia

  • He's not the one trumping his Irish roots, Obama was just making a lighthearted joke in this video.  It is the Irish themselves who are claiming him as one of their own. They love him over there.

  • It doesn't matter you fag. He still has Irish blood. He can acknowledge his Irish heritage when ever he wants. You act like you know him. Are you mad because, everyday your dad sticks his finger up your ass when you act like your sleeping?

  • Good sir, your maturity demonstrates your intelligence. Also, assuming you're a supporter of Obama, I can't say he'd smile on your slur on homosexuality.

    3% Irish is like me saying that I'm Jewish because the Gaelic race can trace it's lineage to Zara of the tribe of Judah. Obama never lived in Ireland or was raised in an Irish setting with Irish culture. He's about as Irish as any other person who was staggering across the street drunk yesterday as it was St. Padraig's day.

  • calm down, his ancestor still originated from there.

    there are many many many native/ asian/ latino folks i know who are 5th generation and have NEVER been exposed to their heritage. doesnt mean they cant "embrace" it.

  • So? It does not matter. His ancestor is from there! That is one of his descendants. Don't you understand? He can proudly embrace his Irish culture whenever he fucking wants. He can claim it also. No matter what you say. Still does not remove his Irish blood. And it still does not remove the fact that he can embrace part of his culture.

    Jewish? Any fucking body can become Jewish, through a religious conversion. I wasn't using it as anti homosexuality but as a word for asshole. I apologize.

  • Actually Judaism is passed (although you can convert) down through the family, that is why they are a race.

  • Yes, Jewish identity is passed through the MOTHER. Anybody can become a Jew through a conversion. But even though Jewish identity is passed through the mother, you are no longer a Jew if you, lets say start practicing Christianity. But that can't happen to another race. You can't stop being black if you hang around a lot of white people. Being a Jew is ethnoreligious at best. Not a race.

  • Well, I'm not incorrect in saying that the Irish are Jewish as the etymology of the word Jew comes from the land of Judah and the eponymous tribe and son of Jacob. Since the Gaelic race is descended from Zarah, son of Judah, we are partially Jewish by the best definition of the word.

    Besides, it is acceptable to claim something as your heritage if you were raised under that culture. Obama was not raised by Irish cultural values and traditions. His genealogical claim is weak at best. Poseur.

  • Huh? Lol most Irish are Catholics. Jewish was not even number 5 on the list.

    "Obama was not raised by Irish cultural values and traditions." Yeah because you obviously grew up with the man lol idiot. Still doesn't matter. He has Irish bloodline and he can EMBRACE the culture etc when ever he wants. Poseur? Who are you calling a poseur?

  • You have no idea what the difference between culture and religion is.

    And Obama wasn't raised in a home with Irish Cultural emphasis. He is a poseur. He's not Irish, and any claim otherwise is bullshit. He was raised by his psychotic mother and then by his grandmother. He never even met his Irish relative that he's supposed to take his "Irishness" from.

    If he has the right to say he's Irish, I can say that I'm Jewish since one of my ancestors was a direct descendant of Judah. Jew= from Judah.

  • Again stop trying to act like you know how he was raised. It still doesn't matter he has Irish bloodline and he can embrace the culture. Poseur is when somebody pretends to be something he is not. So? He has it in his bloodline, he doesn't need to met his Irish ancestor. He has Irish bloodline and he is proud. O yeah hes a poseur you fucking idiot. Yes you have the fucking right idiot, nobody is saying you can't dumbass. So shut up.

  • But that's ridiculous. I have no link to Jewish culture whatsoever. Barack Obama had no link to Irish culture. While blood does account for something, 3% isn't nearly enough to make up for the fact that Obama wouldn't know something Irish if it smacked him upside the head.

    As it stands, he's a chameleon. He'll claim to be anything if he thought it would increase his constituency. What better way to attract kids of Irish Catholic Conservatives than to tell the World you are Irish?

  • So you can embrace it. Key word embrace. If its part of your bloodline its enough. So black people never been to Africa, and their greats are from there. That doesn't mean they can not embrace their African culture.I bet he's been in Ireland a lot of times, and they love him over there. Stop trying to tell other peoples identity. Are you mad because he has an ancestor that's Irish and you probably don't? I'm not Irish and I know Irish culture. He has Irish in him, get over it. It not a big deal.
