two things:

One, if he turned brown due to a tan... why is he still brown? A tan doesn't last 4 years.

Two: While yes, caucasian people tends to tan, in my experience the only people who use that as a punchline for a comicstrip... tend to be pretty racist themselves and apologize later because 'it was just a tan joke'...

Answer to your ETA: Funny, that strip was not when she gave the ORIGINAL reason for America turning brown. I had to hunt the link but here it is Reality Hits. Also, it was done in 2009, way before she introduces Sister America.
