dabble in the dark arts

To have a family history including any non-white, usually black, relationships that are secretive or unspoken.
Child: "How come my hair is curlier than cousin Stacy's."
Parent: "We don't talk about it, but your great-grandfather was known to dabble in the dark arts."

Friend: "You kinda look white, but like a bunch of other things. What are you?"
Me: "Yeahhh. Our family tree is full of people who dabbled in the dark arts. Native American, black, South American, etc."

Dark Brandon

Not gonna lie, I thought this was a play on the character "Darth Bandon" from the Star Wars Extended Universe. It is not - in fact, it is a political meme.

That being said, like most of these things, it is completely nebulous and has no substance in and of itself - it is inherently valueless and says nothing about the user of the phrase. That is to say, a person using "Dark Brandon" for its intended use is a coward.
Person A: You may have defeated the pathetic bounty hunter my Master sent after you, but you are no match for me! I have studied at the foot of the Dark Lord himself!
Person B: LET'S GO DARK BRANDON
Person A: Your words mean nothing to me... unless you wish to beg for your life. No? Then I shall try to make this both quick and painful!

Obama Spill Darkening Solution

Obama's re- election depends on him looking darker, that way he can be more appealing to the African American community and get their vote in 2012. President Obama recentley took a vacation to Panama City for a swim and to prove the water is clean.
scenerio
Obama: " Man, I need to look more black ,so all the niggas can vote fo me!"

Kanye West: " Try the Obama Spill Darkening Solution my nigga, all it takes is a swim in the Gulf of Mexico and the black oil will turn you're skin darker, watch out fo them gay fish tho!"
The Obama Spill Darkening Solution works by adding oil spill water in your skin, waiting 5 to 10 minutes and the last part envolves getting a tan for another 10 minutes.

another interesting fact: The obama darkening solution helped white people scam the Alaskan government during the exxon valdez oil spill by turning them dark like the inuit people so they could get a compensation check for their polluted beaches.
