I share your point of view - I think it would have been better if Obama had identified himself as "of mixed race." Better and more honest.

"I pray that one day we can see all the different colors, and celebrate the beauty of God’s creation, without prejudice against anyone. Just like the autumn trees draped in all their splendor, so are the shades of humanity."

Wanted to highlight this beautiful vision. Colorblindness is advocating oppressive homogeneity. Diversity from immigration makes us great. It's the US secret sauce for world leadership, by being a societal microcosm of the world's diverse peoples.

"Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

". . . we all recognize deep down inside just how obtuse and evil the concept of race is at its core."

Totally agree; one of the most evil concepts ever created.
