Why does people always talk about Obama that he is the black president?

Is it just me, I feel like half black half white people always just get labeled as black, even though they're just as black as they are white.

Because his appearance is black, and because the existence of racism made having a black president a very big and important milestone.
Such a milestone shouldn't have to exist, but it does. Obviously there are many other good things that he brought to his presidency. But it was really awesome that the USA broke that barrier.

@AmbivalentFriability He did nothing good: Solyndra was a fiasco that caused a lot of people to lose jobs, he gave Iran billions and they continued their nuclear aspirations, job rate tanked, stock market was stagnet. The piece of shit did nothing good and his racist sidekick is now your president elect. Good luck with that.
