Maybe that's what happened...

"Barack Obama shares op-ed signed by 149 black members of his administration ..."

Current and former African American appointees met on Sept. 24, 2016 in Washington, D.C

"149 African American members of the Obama administration proclaimed that they 'refuse to sit idly by' during 'the poisoning of our democracy,' and Obama seemingly signaled his agreement."

Uh....I'm not sure what they are referring to when they say, "members of his (Obama's) administration", but 149 people is a whole lot of people period!  Whether you're fucking white, kind of black, brown or fucking pink, how in the hell did 149 'African Americans' get hired?  At 13% of the population that would mean Obama had to have well over a thousand "members of his administration".  Unless of course if he was racially biased in his hiring processes or something.
