Here's the real math:

White man + white woman = white baby.
Black man + white woman = black baby.
White man + black woman = black baby.
Black man + white woman = black baby.
Key: Black anything + any other ethic group = black baby


There are no fractions or percentages that are signifigant. Very few black people in America have only African blood running through their veins...just like our new president. That doesn't mean they aren't black, or a "half" something this or "quarter" something that. Racism doesn't see percentages.

That's why the election and today's inauguration are so significant. America got over that high hurdle it was unable to until now. I am sure you are mature and intelligent enough to get that.
lol brilliant formula, i just had to add the key.
