His charity certainly seems to seek to impact the next generation to raise up like minded leaders who will impact policy. I wonder how many dollars actually go to help underserved communities to meaningfully provide for and bring about the fundamental changes that will cause African American families to thrive socially, educationally, and economically. Prove me wrong. Does he get it or is he using his skin color to serve an agenda that ultimately does little to improve life for Black America let alone American society as a whole?

He's not black.
He's not black? He looks black. Regardless of where he was born, my understanding is that his Father was Kenyan.
And his mother was white. What's there not to understand? If someone wants to change the social dynamics of an entire country due to their race, shouldn't the race at the very least be from both immediate parents?
Can you prove he’s African? I haven’t seen anyone else prove they could. Skin color doesn’t mean he’s African. Elon Musk is African American. Obama’s 4 or 5 birth certificates says he was born in American lands.
A local paper from the time that he first ran for senator identifies him as Kenyan born.
Bet they never said that again. And couldn’t prove it in court to save their life…literally. A Kenyan born isn’t viable to be president of the US. So he’s from Hawaii..I’m mean on the east side of the US, did I mention Illinois yet? As I said, no one can prove he’s from Kenya. Not as of today. Well they can, but, it won’t be true to the history books.
We don't know who or what his father is. By his claim of Kenyan father he claimed British-American dual citizenship, but it's clear he was bred and raised as the man who can chameleon into any race.
Based on the family stating he was born in Kenya, halfrican seems to be the best descriptor.
He's Kenyan, not African
Kenya is a part of Africa and, in my view, he's barely African let alone Kenyan since he was raised as an American.
Oh, ok. As you can see, my geography knowledge isn't the best. 😅
Obama is a childhood friend of the Bushes. He is CIA not black nor white.
I believe that there was a direct Bush/CIA link with the grandparents.
That's how it seems to me. In light of the fact that he has leveraged his race, it would seem to me that he would make an attempt to directly help the poor and underserved. OTOH, I suppose that by training leaders to follow in good policy footsteps that that would count for something in the AA community. Then too, I've not done a deep dive into his foundation.
Obama’s presidency will be annulled.
How we all wish....
