Because Barak Obama is a Mulatto man, not an African-American, would history books have to state that the forty-fourth President of the United States was the first African-American President, a statement accompanied by an asterisks denoting that he is actually a Mulatto?

Why don’t people accept the fact that Barak Obama had an African-American (Kenyan) father, and a Caucasian mother, making him a Mulatto (a very honorable “mixed race”,) and not an African American?

Insisting that Obama is the first African-American elected President of the United States, would eventually cause a dilemma. What would happen when the first full blooded African-American is elected President, how would that person be described? The “First full blooded Africa-American?” Or, What?
