And because of that assumption the person will be treated certain ways by ignorant people. But what gives anyone else the right to judge how that person thinks of himself? Shouldn't we have come a little farther from the "one drop" days?

So why doesn't he just say he is bi-racial (or multiracial)? Why doesn't he just say "I'm black and Asian"? Like I said, I don't care who he dates, and I never will, but I do think he (like Michael Jackson) has a problem with being black (just like I think Martin Sheen and Geraldo Rivera have issues about being hispanic).
