What do you think? It is the general consensus that the majority of blacks, not all, voted for Obama BECAUSE he is black and no other reason. And continue supporting him BECAUSE he is black, regardless of his failed presidency.

    Too many miss the point of the anti-Obama movement



    He was NOT elected because of his experience, wisdom, or time spent in the Senate.



    He was basically elected because of his race.

    ** The majority of blacks voted for him only because he's black.

    ** Many whites voted for him, hoping to bridge the racial divide.

    ** And some voted for him because he sounded really smart, uttering all the right catch phrases.



    But something funny happened down the road....people started waking up to what he really is....a hard-left socialist with radical views/policies and the majority....I repeat...the MAJORITY of the voting population don't like the direction he taking us. He wants to reduce the USA that of Europe...before pulling the trigger on that....do some honest research and you'll see the grass isn't greener on the other side.



    There's a 'reason' why so many people from other countries try to migrate to the USA, let's not destroy that reason

    unfortunetly many of us do not see ourselves as Americans but black or white, Democrat or Republican. It seems as if there are two companies out there each with and promoting their brand of product, employing their own people and agencies to support their agendas. We need one company instead named United States of America and all of us should strive for its benefit. Jobs are still going over seas in record numbers. It is sad.

    A large percentage of them voted for him just because of the color of his skin and as you say still support him because of the color of his skin. It has nothing to do with policies, in fact most would still vote for him if they disagreed with his policies 100%.

    In addition her video was a parody; I guess sarcasm isn't your forte.

    Here we go again...

    The unprecedented diversity of the electorate last year was driven by increases both in the number and in the turnout rates of minority eligible voters.

    The levels of participation by black, Hispanic and Asian eligible voters all increased from 2004 to 2008, reducing the voter participation gap between themselves and white eligible voters. This was particularly true for black eligible voters. Their voter turnout rate increased 4.9 percentage points, from 60.3% in 2004 to 65.3% in 2008, nearly matching the voter turnout rate of white eligible voters (66.1%). For Hispanics, participation levels also increased, with the voter turnout rate rising 2.7 percentage points, from 47.2% in 2004 to 49.9% in 2008. Among Asians, voter participation rates increased from 44.6% in 2004 to 47.0% in 2008. Meanwhile, among white eligible voters, the voter turnout rate fell slightly, from 67.2% in 2004 to 66.1% in 2008.

    There was only a 4.5% bump for Obama, which equated to 2 million more votes for him. As I stated; the numbers show it is obvious that the Black community in recent times vote predominantly for the Democrats.

    You are too funny. Dismissing the facts while peddling your propaganda data. If anything you have proven that Blacks are racist because they came out in high numbers to vote for a half black man.
    Let's see the data from the 2010 elections when democrats got shellacked. Somehow you dismiss that, huh?
    This year blacks won't be so eager to vote for barack because they know he's a fraud. He's done nothing for them and nothing for the country other than to divide us racially, economically, Ideologically, lose our standing in the world, piss off our allies and rack up unprecedented debts and deficits. I'm not buying you crap so run along and try to fool some of 0webama's dwindling supporters.

    I'm guessing if the black candidate were republican and the white candidate were democrat, most blacks would vote democrat. But I don't believe it would be a 90-10 split. The media and race-baiters like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would be doing their best to try and convince anybody who would listen that the republican black was really just an Uncle Tom or some other racist stereotype.

    Obama has failed at everything but killing Osama and blacks are worse off today than when he was elected, yet he still garners over 90% of the black vote while all other races give him approx. 50% or less. I don't know what that tells you but It's pretty damn obvious to me.

    If you spun it for real as CMackle suggest, then I guess he would think whites are racists as well because out of the 44 POTUS, 43 of them have been white. So does that mean whites are truly the one that are racists because they kept 43 white men in office before America was brave enough to vote in someone of a different race?

    I wonder how they'll feel when they learn the Mitt is half Hispanic. His father was born in Mexico, so he's Mexican... Whether they like it or not, minorities will be elected. LOL!

I'm guessing a guilty conscious; in addition you are absolutely right about all 43 presidents being White and over half not being a lick of good. These guys don't even comprehend Socialism, and Fascism has been within this country for a long, long, long time.
