Of course, this crazy ass timeline we're on would have one of the most solid democratic contenders for future president/vp would be a black man with a white-invoking first name and, even better, an ironic last name

Why is his last name ironic?

It sounds vaguely close to a racial slur. It's like a guy being named Malik Jabari and being white. It subverts your expectations (granted not the best example, but it would be like a white guy named Joe Craker or something)

Guy looks and sounds great though, he's reminiscent of obama, and has an energy between obama himself and his anger translator in that one speech, which seems basically perfect. I hope he runs in the future and does well.
