...Obama...

Well, I'll better continue my post.
In my point of view it would be important to mention some of the situations Obama had to struggle with since he was a child.
'Coon' and 'Nigger' are some phrases that were said (and that might be still said) to refer to black people, but in an offensive way. These were words Obama listened most of the time. Maybe, people who mentioned this sort of words don't know the reason for calling black ones like this. This might be a social problem, and they may become familiar with them since their childhood.
Obama, and most black people, had to be careful with the words he used while taljing with white people and those he used while talking with black ones, too.
This is what made him feel confused with himself. He didn't find the differences between black abd white people, but the society was showing him these differences between them all the time.
In my opinion, our country has at least this advantage of not having to handle with this big differences between people. I wish this sort of ploblems come to an end as soon as possible, not only in U.S.A. but also around the world; due to the fact that discriminated people suffer a lot because of it, and this situations are remenbered by them every minute of their life.
