Not unless there is something about his biologocal parents I don't know. But seriously, he was a great president because he did acknowledge he had seen the effects of racism growing up, where he grew up…He didn't side step those issues, and understood the you cant have a today without a yesterday so it's wise to

Yes , I do know. Racist with no common sense or knowledge of history.I have as much a right to be here as he does, if not probably more. Also, I don't recall a shout out anywhere in history from the real Americans to be "colonized"

it was the music that rock and roll stemmed from. I suggest you check wikipedia. Now have a nice life.

I suggest you use it after all, after all you are the one with the problem with people of other races, not me, it's the reason why I love Manhattan. The rent may be super high but I can't live without the cultural diversity in people, architecture, shopping as well as cuisine… Where else will i get great korean no

you haven't hit a nerve. it's common sense, you can't go back if you don't know where you are from specifically.. africa is a continent, not a country or a county. also you NEVER answered any of my questions i posed to you. and totally side stepped the truth of whose land this really is. i am sure you know the

that still doesn't erase the truth… i mean what is your point exaclty

first of all africa is a continent , not a country or a county so what country would i return back to.. egypt, libya, morrocco? south africa, nigeria, kenya, zimbabw? and that is just to name a few…. secondly, different cultures, i am of a western culture like it or not. also language, do i speak any of the languages

makes no difference who his favorite singer was. stop side stepping the issue. this issue is what made him famous is imitating blks. my parents grew up during segregation and remember poliitciians and preachers concerned about the influence of blks and rock and roll leading to race mixing. stop side stepping and

obvious i hit a nerve.. lol…

.they'll go away..yeah right… then why did people like MLK have to talk about it for blks to have civil rights… my parents spent almost 1/3 of their lives living in the segregated south. seen lynching and beatings and that was before people started talking about it…ever seen a proper lynching.. meaning having your

originally it was called rythm and blues.

he should have. he couldn't be famous with out us. he stole our style our rythm… my mom remembers white politicians fearing rock and roll and getting on the radio and tv saying it would lead to the destruction of the white race thru race mixing.

elvis became popular off of the very dance blacks were sterotyped for… also the clothing… all that color and style that blks were sterotyped for as well.

well your words are only as good as your actions

interesting.. a good black guy considering all the lynchings, and killlings of blks, and native americans.. and the hsitorical discirmination of almost every new immigrant group to this country such as jews, south east asians, middle easterners, koreans, irish, italians… what exactly is a "good white guy".

its obvious you don't know the history of country music…

they don't even know the history of rock and roll ..my mom is from the deep south and born and raised during segregation. she told me about its orgins and the deep fear of whites across the country, at one time, of it leading to race mixing… it became mainstreamed and renamed once it was played by brits and elvis… …

do any of these racists even know of the history of country music in repsect to black people?
