It matters but it doesn't end there. His comment was dumb for other reasons.

I don't care what color the president is, I'm just glad a democrat is in there and I really really hope he helps us. I have faith in him.

"Never thought Id say this ish
Baby Im good
You can keep your Kush? (rhymes with Bush, idk what-poor quality)
I don't want no more Bush
No more war
No more Iraq
No more white lies
the president is Black"

If you listen to the whole verse not just that one line then I think the context can help explain it. In my opinion the white lies line refers to Bush and the war in Iraq not all white people.

Will.I.Am and Oprah were not on your Christmas card list huh? lol. Its okay. I understand.

Since race is a social construction, being biracial has never mattered before as much as it matters (to white people) now.

Biracial blacks were lynched, hosed down, attacked by dogs, called slurs, had to sit in the back of the bus, drank from "colored only" water fountains, been denied jobs, told they couldn't wed whites......

And today, biracial blacks are part of the structure of racism. Obama isn't "less black" because he's biracial just as his family isn't any less of a "black family."

Seeing the whole thing, it looks more like "white lies" means like "little white lies", however could be a double entundra (so spelled that wrong, but you get it).

We don't abide by that.

Race is about what people identify as and how others identify them. Obama is pretty secure with being a black man who is biracial because he has a white mother.

Confused people of all races and ethnicities need to get over that. Or spend their time consulting Tiger Woods on their opinion of what he should identify as.
