If you look far enough back you will find one in everybody&#039;s family and while many find this a godsend, I find it a insult. I give credit to Mr and Mrs Robinson and the desire of Mrs. Obama, herself for the woman she is today and that&#039;s as far back as I need to go.

I have been doing genealogy since the late 1980&#039;s.  On my father&#039;s side of the family, most people would know from looking at him that there are whites in the family. In fact, my dad used to pass for white when it was beneficial to provide for us.  My mother is a dark-skin woman and a shade darker than Michelle Obama but there are just as many whites on her side as it is on my dad&#039;s side of the family.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sweetheart, it does not matter if you are dark skinned or light skin you can still be mixed with something.
