obama if he prsident he wll not be the first black president.I recently was informed that there were black presidents before George Washington and the book "Five Black Presidents" was a good source of information. However, I can't find it anywhere. So, I just wanted to know if there where black presidents before G.W. Thanks, ED
——————————————————————————–
The book was published in 1965 by the noted historian J.A. Rogers. Actually only four Presidents of Afrikan ancestry are identified in the book. They are: 1) Thomas Jefferson 2) Andrew Jackson 3) Abraham Lincoln 4) Warren G. Harding
The 5th was not named in the book at that time. Even though the evidence was strong, at the time of the writing of the book, it was not conclusive that Eisenhower is/was the fifth one.
It is also asserted that Vice-President Hannibal Hamlin, was known to have "black blood" in him. In addition, Alexander Hamilton is said to be the son of a woman, Rachel Fawcett, who had "mixed Blood".

oriely,why haven't you reported on the nay sayers about the sarah palin attacks? It appeared to me carl cameron was having a little too much delight in reporting such suposedly palin atrocities. i have heard on other networks that the rumors are not true and that other palin statements and deeds are being taken out of context. pls find and chase down the the culprits and get to the real truth of the matter.

I am real disappointed in Carl Cameron.We had formed an opinion about him and was favorable ,but now he seems to take delight in going after Sarah Palin. If he didn't (doesn't) like Sarah ,then why in the world would he travel with that team? I'm real sorry that Carl has turned ,maybe he should be releast and go over to cnn. ugh.

Cameron definitely did seem to relish all the negative reporting on Palin. I thought Fox was suspose to be living up to the standard that journalist were not predjudice in their reporting.

Im appalled at the story on the store that opened so people could through glass dishes and cups at a wall to "vent thier rage" I have worked overseas in Calcutta with the Mission of Mercy where thousands of children do not have a clean cup to drink out of nor a clean plate to eat off of, if there is food at all. They dont have the option to throw a tantrum and break dishes and glass wear even though they are children and these American adults are not.
