I don't. That said, if he is one he has done such a masterful job of hiding it that it becomes irrelevant. I don't care what's in his heart, I care what he does and so far, other than listening to someone who says questionable things (I grew up with a very racist grandfather and I never called him out on it either and if I had kids I'd still take them to see him -- if he were alive) I've seen no evidence to suggest Obama is racist in any way that matters.
