Part One of a video commemorating the inauguration of President Barack Obama. I made this in an attempt to sum up why this event is so significant to American history. The fact that a country that once counted Black men
as 3/5 of a person now elected a Black president is nothing short of... inspiring (for the lack of a better word).

  • Obama. Is not a descendant of slaves

  • we been threw alot black people

  • If you want to dig around in the past about slavery... you left out the part about Obama's ancestors being slave traders.

    And why do you think that he didn't want race to be part of his campaign?... because his ancestors were black African Arabs, not African blacks. He is not legally considered an African-American, but then again, he may not be a citizen at all.

    Obama... provide a birth certificate.
