Another multi racial person that got doors opened and a great education by claiming she was Afro American. If blacks are so down trodden and making claims that you are a racist if you disagree with them, why do they claim the negro portion of their racial make-up? Fast track to get ahead, that's why.

Medgar Nevers of NY, you are proof positive that racist idiots do exist.

Why is she considered African-American anymore than she's considered white? This whole idea of "one-drop" blood of blacks is nothing but an extension of the old race-based policies. 80% of blacks in American have white blood, and this crap is getting real old. E.g., Barrack Obama is equally white as he is black, and arguably far less black in that relevant culture, having been raised in about the whitest community possible and learned black culture (coke, marijuana, community activism) while in south Chicago much later in life.

Jackson is, in the words of rush Limbaugh, a "river of boiling hatred toward white people and the United States of America."

We were born on the same day but two years apart. I was born Feb. 8,1960 so other than being born on a stellar day,she's intelligent,beautiful and she's on top of her game.Enough already with the race crap because African Americans have help build this country brick by brick.

Who cares about Jackson's ethnic background? I certaintly don't but I OPPOSE HER LEFT WING VIEWS regarding global warming, which is a bloody myth. As for Starcy of CA, Let me quote Mark Levin: Get out of here you idiot! And that goes for your fellow LEFT WINGERS.

Unqualified? hey "Kathy Hahn from Georgia"? Yeee- haw! Hows about them DAWGS!!!
Woof woof woof woof.... Know what? I think you are an idiot. She was a summa cum laude graduate of the School of Chemical Engineering at Tulane University, one of the finest schools in the nation, and has a master's in chemical engineering from Princeton, one of the best schools in the WORLD. Jackson joined the Environmental Protection Agency in 1987 and worked for the EPA for 16 years in Washington and New York City in a number of capacities dealing with hazardous waste sites and enforcement.
yeah- what could she POSSIBLY know! (thats sarcasm for all you idiot racist "birthers" out there- and that would be you "Kathy from Texas"
but the biggest fool is "Mad scientist of AR" (what a surprise- yet ANOTHER stupid red neck). rather pay $1.50/gallon? sure why not. how about free? would you like us to gas up your pick up for you there Jethro???

Kathy of TX, you are truly an idiot!! African-Americans can and do have spanish last names. African-Americans come in all colors and phenotypes. New Orleans has always been a huge melting pot. I'm sure the Perez family that raiaed her is a "black" family. Jackson identifies herself as African-American....that's what matters! Research New Orleans, you need to educate yourself.

Lisa Jackson has NO African physical characteristics. Not the hair, nose, lips or skin. Who classified her African? She was raised by Spanish parents. Was her Mother a victim of rape?
