WHY First Black American President? And not BI-RACIAL?

If Obama's mother is white and his father is black shouldn't the more appropriate term be First BI-RACIAL American President?
If his mother and father were BOTH black then the correct term would be First Black or African American president.
Can someone please clarify this for me?
Thank you
