As biographer David Mendell notes in his 2007 book Obama: From Promise to Power, the job gave Obama "his first deep immersion into the African American community he had longed to both understand and belong to."

Clearly Obama could produce a son that looks like Trayvon. And that son may wear a hoodie, hell Obama may have even worn one a some point because it's a perfectly acceptable form of clothing

In other news, St.Zimmerman apparently saved 10 white babies from a burning car.
