People are missing the point.

Although tbh carson and obama are both pretty fuckin white

Ssssh don't say that!

You'll be the next person on a controversial quote article!

But in all seriousness, it really doesn't matter what color their skin is or if they are "a real black president". I'm gonna vote for the guy/gal who will get shit done.

emigrate or degenerate. the choice is yours
Bit flippant mentioning his race when it's kind of irrelevant tbh.

Don't see why anyone should be getting distraught about it though.

Carson's race is a big deal for this campaign, whether that's a good thing or not. There's no point in hopping around it. Obama's race won him the whitehouse, and it remains to be seen whether race will (or can) do the same for Carson.
Race really shouldn't be used to measure someone's capacity to do the job properly, though. It's partly why the whole identity politics fiasco has gotten so out of fucking hand in both the US and the UK.

Again, hardly something people should be wringing their in hands in disbelief over, but still a douchebag move regardless.

Obama's race won him the whitehouse
It helped him with the primaries but it in no way "won" him the whitehouse. What won him the whitehouse was 8 years of Republican shit and then you get some old establishment guy coming in and people didn't want, what they perceived, as 4 more years of the same stuff. Old and established vs young and new. It was obvious who would win.

Then in 2012 it was him against someone who did a horrible job campaigning, saying 47% were desperate on government, and couldn't even outline his own plans on what to do as president, flip flopped left and right like none other to appeal to the conservative base (which was stupid because he's a moderate which is what we need), and finally had the same healthcare which Obama based his off of.

To say he won the whitehouse simply because he was black is oversimplifying it and wrong. Did it help? Yeah, but saying he won because of it is stupid, especially in 2012 when that whole "YES WE CAN" crap was done with.

Get of my lawn
What does he mean by "real black?"

Is he going to address congress like Samuel L Jackson?

i'd like to think that obama won in 2008 because nobody wanted the looming threat of having a mrs. sarah palin as president
