It may be because Obama's mother was white, or it just may be a matter of Cain fitting into Dino's mold of what a black man should be. I don't know Dino so I'm not gonna accuse him of being racist BUT......in the 60's, down south, we encountered this type of thinking...the white racists were fond of saying there were two types of black folks, one (they referred to as a "negro") knew their place and didn't stir up trouble (like being treated equally), the other (they called the "n" word) was a troublemaker who dared to demand equality and an end to Jim Crow. The bottom line being they were willing to tolerate the black man as long as he kept quiet and accepted their world....in other words, you can be black as long as you live by our rules.
