No more Afrocentrism, for the last time: The ancient Egyptians where not black!! Neither was Jesus nor Abraham Lincoln!

Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

Neither are the modern Egyptians. They are more olive-skinned like other Mediterraneans and Arabs. It is the Ethiopians and Sudanese and other Africans who are generally very dark-skinned.
I am on a mission to see how much coffee it takes to actually achieve time travel.

I know, but Afrocentrists claim that ancient Egyphtians where black and where displaced by Arabs later.
This is completley baseless, Greek sources compare the Egyptians to northern Indians and Mesopotamian's.
Also the Black Israelites claim that most of the European monarchs of the middle ages where actually black.

Anyway, Obama's father is Kenyan; east African, not north. So, not "Obama looks like an Egyptian King", but maybe "Obama looks like an African chieftain"?

The point is that Egyptian phaors (except the Nubian dynasty) had not black genes at least no more than say Spaniards or Italians or Arabs.

Some Upper Egyptian kings (the Thutmose that overthrew the Hyksos, for example) most likely did have some Black ancestry as they were essentially Sudanese. Lower Egyptian kings most likely did not. I'd say Obama could look like a pharaoh but that's because Obama isn't quite Black, he's mulatto anyway.
