First, he's pretty impressive.
The black/white parents piece is a part of his story, and I suspect it's one of the things that he and his organization play up to some extent.
When a candidate (or other notable person) chooses to lay those facts out, why shouldn't they be used. To not mention them would be to not tell the entire story.
