That link says that Barack Obama, Jr.'s non-European half is mainly arabic, and so much so that he is not racially afroid enough to qualify for minority status as a black American. If that were true, wouldn't you think that Steve Sailer would be repeating the same thing, insteading of claiming that Barack Obama, Jr. is fully half Nilotic?
Obama Rumors Untrue—And Less Interesting Than The Truth
By Steve Sailer
Many wild rumors have circulated about Barack Obama, such as
That he was really born in Kenya and thus isn’t eligible to be President.
That he isn’t black because his father was 7/8ths Arab.
...
You probably got an email or two asserting that Obama’s father was Arab, not black.
Actually, he was black. Here’s a picture of Barack Obama Sr., with Obama's mother Stanley Ann Dunham.
Obama Sr. might have had a tiny bit of ancestry from an Arab slave trader or two to whom his African ancestors sold captured black slaves, but he sure wasn’t 7/8ths Arab. In his memoir, Obama rightly calls his father "black as pitch" and refers to his father's tribe as "as ink-black Luo". Here's a picture comparing father and son:
For awhile, a story has been going around that Sen. Barack Obama Jr. isn't really African-American at all, that he's 7/16th Arab and only 1/16th sub-Saharan African. Well, it's not true. Here's a picture of his parents.
It's quite possible that Barack Obama Sr. might have been a little bit Arab, and it's certainly possible that some of Sen. Obama's ancestors sold their fellow black Africans to Arab slavetraders. But this rumor that Barack Obama Sr. was 7/8th Arab is silly.

That is the entire blogpost. It simply contains a picture of Barack Obama's parents, as proof-enough that his father was Nilotic rather than Arabic.
And look up his parents next.
Wikipedia doesn't have much information about this, so here:

If you think this is mistaken, please provide a refutation, or a source giving equally detailed, contradictory claims.
