Not hardly. According to CBS News White House correspondent Mark Knoller, considered the unofficial presidential statistician, Obama has taken nine vacations since taking office. By the end of August, 2010, Knoller said, Obama willl have spent 48 days on vacation since he became president on January 20, 2009.
According to Knoller, President George W. Bush spent 879 days on holiday during his eight years in office.
-- Considering that there are 105 weekends in a year. 840 of those 879 days were just weekends. You know, when EVERYBODY takes off. Which are counted in that "Stat"
So, Bush took quite a few LESS vacations than you are trying to say he did.

President Obama has taken 84 days (some sources say 90) during his first four years. This is less than what President Bush took in the same time period, but slightly more than what Bill Clinton took.

Do whites vacation more than blacks?
I don't believe that you can make any generalizations about that. To pick only two examples, I'm white and haven't taken a "vacation" in seven years, while President Barack Obama (who is black) has taken 10 or more in his 5.5 years in office.
How many vacation days has Obama taken since January 2008 to March 2013?
Most objective sources have placed the total at between 84 and 90, and one source has said 95 days. This is still far fewer vacation days than some other recent presidents (most notably George W. Bush) took at this point in their presidency, but slightly more than a couple of presidents, including Bill Clinton. It should be noted that internet claims that Mr. Obama has taken the most vacation days of any president are false, as are the claims that he spent more money on vacation than any other president. Such claims are usually expressed by partisans on talk shows, and have no evidence to support them.
