The mythical first black president

I have NEVER understood this premise that Clinton was the first black president. OH COME ON--since when is a guy from Arkansas that went to Yale who loved Fullbright somehow magically a black guy?????

Well here's an article written by Monica Crowley who zeros in on that myth. It's a good read.

I love the last sentence: "Then again, would you expect anything different from two people whose own characters are empty and malignant?" YES, finally someone provides an accurate description of the Clintons.
