If President Obama were dark-skinned and took exactly after his father ...do you think he would have received the support he did and the votes?
Why/Why not?

From what I have seen, his father wasn't great. Didn't he leave his mom a single mother? To racist people, it doesn't matter what kind of black you are, you are still black.

His features, in that he was dark-skinned and obviously African.

Maybe it was my wording ....? I don't know if America would be as receptive to a dark-skinned man as they are someone who is fairer skinned.

Hello! I wonder if he was dark-skinned with a white wife? Would he seem less "threatening" by whites? Also I know most whites would turned off by the fact a BM with a WW! Or selling out by blacks? However BM/WW nothing new in the black community.

No, he's still black.
