He is only half African American even tho most people choose not to recognize his Caucasian ancestry. And the answer is no. They will not feel less suppressed as a whole but individuals may.

The first minority President is President Barack Obama. He is half African American and Caucasian. Most people refer to him as African American.
because not many people that are African get to be American President because most of the People are not well educated and are graduates from Harvard of Oxford so it is quite an amazing thing to do it
He is our president. He also like to help poor people who don't have money. He is the first African American president
The first and only African-American president in the US is Barack Obama. President Bill Clinton was jokingly called "America's first black president" because he had many black friends and promoted policies that helped black people, but Mr. Clinton was white. Barack Obama is in fact African-American, and when he was elected in 2008, he became the country's first black president.
Obama is half Kenyan, half white American. Most people identify him as African-American or black.
Obama gave a precendent to African American People to run for President.
the African american society is able to vote. we now have a African american president for 4 more years. we are now accepting African american in our society. Before we were all completely isolated but now we mingle and we realized that African Americans are amazing people. i am not an African american but this is my view of how our opinions have changed about African americans

Anyone that looks African American will get treated & referred to as one. No one is going to dissect or analyze (or care) what the percentage is in his blood. If a white man is not entirely white he will still be called a Caucasian & probably won't be offended by it. _______________________________________________________________________ His father was from Kenya and his mother was from the United States, so the president is an African-American. In American society, biracial people are often considered to be black.
The US has evolved to a point where it recognizes as a whole that African Americans are equal people, and are just as qualified to be the president as anyone else. While not all people share this sentiment, there are enough such that the minority do not matter.
