Morgan Freeman: The U.S. Has Not Had A Black President Yet

(NHPR) Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman joined Tell Me More host Michel Martin to discuss his new movie, The Magic of Belle Isle. But the prolific actor, famous for his roles in films such as The Shawshank Redemption, Million Dollar Baby and The Dark Knight, also had a lot to say about politics. He was especially interested in talking about President Obama, and why Freeman thinks he should not be called America’s first black president.

“First thing that always pops into my head regarding our president is that all of the people who are setting up this barrier for him … they just conveniently forget that Barack had a mama, and she was white — very white American, Kansas, middle of America,” Freeman said. “There was no argument about who he is or what he is. America’s first black president hasn’t arisen yet. He’s not America’s first black president — he’s America’s first mixed-race president.”


Many of Freeman’s films explore important chapters of African-American history: Amistad was about the trans-Atlantic slave trade; Driving Miss Daisy was set in the civil rights era; and Glory centered on an all-black regiment in the Civil War.


Freeman says he has been disappointed by what he considers unfair treatment of Obama by his political opponents.


“He is being purposely, purposely thwarted by the Republican Party, who started out at the beginning of his tenure by saying, ‘We are going to do whatever is necessary to make sure that he’s only going to serve one term,’ ” he said. “That means they will not cooperate with him on anything. So to say he’s ineffective is a misappropriation of the facts.”

How many of Obama's supporters would have voted for him if he was White? Thinking about that, can you tell me who the real Racists are?

[Faumpiggueria]

isn't he the guy who hooked up with his granddaughter or some weird thing like that?

[mpegdvdclip]

My guess is there's more than one white slut and horny white guy in his family tree. So what's that make him?

[margoaroyo]

fuck him. Why should we care?

[mpegdvdclip]

fuck him. Why should we care?

Exactly. I can go with that.

[addisonnicogel]

fuck him. Why should we care?

Because it generates a TRIBAL attitude. Unless you're white, everyone should be tribal.

[Fellionas]

We have had several black presidents and they were all played by ....Morgan Freeman. A pale skinned mulatto with FRECKLES. haha

This guy is ignorant. Virtually every American black is mixed race. The idiot should open a history book instead of a script now and then.

[Corporal White]

See how Freeman says Obama's mother is "an American from Kansas"?

I still think Obama's mother is a jewess. He must have Khazar blood in order for the cabal to have selected him, and he has uncountable ties to jewish communism.

[antiggill]

isn't he the guy who hooked up with his granddaughter or some weird thing like that?

Yup. It was his step-granddaughter..

[Anypeny]

Like this guy's not in the exclusive club.

[Fainnamoony]

The one drop rule notwithstanding, Obama’s ‘black’ identity (epitomized by his marriage) has always seemed fabricated and unconvincing to me.

He will likely be remembered by future generations of mixed race Americans with exotic multicultural backgrounds not as 'black' but as a mixed race American with an exotic multicultural background.

This guy is ignorant. Virtually every American black is mixed race. The idiot should open a history book instead of a script now and then.

Remember, he's an ACTOR. He can ACT like an intelligent black man. That certainly doesn't mean he IS one. ACTORS don't really provide anything to the human race other than entertainment and distraction. I wouldn't take advice from him on how to tie my shoes. I'll never understand why some people have such respect and admiration for people whos entire life revolves around "faking it".
