    95% voted for Obama and 90% of Black voters usually vote Democrat; 92% voted for Al Gore, 90% for Clinton and so on.



    In addition only about 65% out of 42 million voted; so out of that 65%, 95% voted for Obama.



    Oh, and by the way; Asians, Jews, Hispanics and College kids all showed more voter turnout for the Democrats in 2008, than before.

    Why did White voters vote for Bush, Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Woodrow Wilson, FDR etc....let's not play these games?

    vote bush nixon jimmy carter woodrow wilson fdr play games

    According to the US Census Bureau, 68.1% of all Black men and 62.3% of Black women over the age of 16 are in the civilian labor force, compared to 73% of white men, and 59.9% of white women. With racial discrimination and other challenges, more of us are still working than sitting at home.
    While the majority of poor people in America are Black, the majority of Black people are NOT poor. Of the 42 million Blacks in this nation, 8.1 million have incomes below the poverty line.

    In addition; most who live below the poverty line still work.

    First off Black umemployment rates are always higher and so what if Blacks will still vote for him, Whites have been voting for White Presidents 100% you can't get more racist then that... And once again you Conservative fail to realize the impact the past recession had on minority unemployment.. Sounds like more race baiting to me..

    I would contend you missed the point once again. The point being, nothing has changed for the black community even though they voted in lock step for the least experienced man in the room. Granted no one expected the black vote to suddenly change to anything reflecting an intelligent voter, but if this would be a white president, and minority unemployment remained this high, all you would hear is stories about the president keeping the blacks down. It is the hypocrisy of the dependency party that we find so humorous.

    When the democrats took over and made everything he did... fail. When the press crucified him at every chance.

    Obama came on and was treated like a Rock Star...he could do no wrong..he took that and slammed us in the face with all his socialist b.s. He bailed out his buddies and played favorites to his communist mentors and supporters.

    He's a failure because he could NOT do the job and only got it cuz he's black!

    Sorry, LadyB. Did you know Bush did not veto a SINGLE thing his first year as president with a democratic congress? He was weak an inefficient. A RINO if you will. I believe he loved our country and he handled 9/11 admirably, but spend spend spend is what he did, Just like Obama, and the war in Iraq was a terrible miscalculation. I cannot support Bush. Equally though Obama has been a terrible failure as well.

    Sigh . This is really pointless. There was never a black candidate to vote for. When there was a black candidate, (Obama) many more white voted for him, than blacks voted for McCain.

    There is no point to the race debate.

    Every single state in the U.S. that has a republican system of government, saw larger unemployment drops than the ones led by democrats.
