No, it's not like that. Black genes are dominant and white genes are recessive. A black and a white parent cannot produce a white child.


actually there are codominant. That is why BO's dad is real dark and he is light skinned. If the black parent has (i.e.barak obama) had a kid with a white woman using the punnett square S=black skin and s=white skin.

Dad's genotype is Ss Mom's is ss

The four possible genotypes for the child are Ss (black), Ss(black), ss(white) and ss (white). Now since skin color is a codominate and not strictly dominant/recessive the black skin would be light skinned and the white shin would be darker. From a culture perspective you would day that the kid is afican american even though he/she has a 50% of being genotypically white.

I know. But that was not the assertion. It was that Obama and Michelle could produce a WHITE child. They can't.
