HRC is the winner among racists, whose vote BHO could only win were he to turn white. It irritates me that she exploits this.

How do you figure that when they completely backed Clinton at the beginning of this race??

in fact, for example, she carried Harlem. The AA vote was definitely hers to lose. If it weren't for the comments that she and Bill made with respect to the african american vote--implying that it wasn't as important as the white vote, saying "as far as I know" about whether Obama was a Muslim, etc., she would probably still have considerable african american support. Obama's support was actually weak in some respects among african american's at first because of the fact they didn't feel he was "african american" enough in that his father was African and his mother was a white american.

but don't you see that Barrack can only win if black people vote for him? Its the same thing. these people wouldn't be voting were he NOT black!
[ Reply | Options ]ita. and the same applies with the affluent white people who support him. supporting him because he's black.
[ Reply | Options ]And the white college students, and white young people in general? Also just because he is black? How come they never cared for an AA candidate before?
[ Reply | Options ]I am black and I hate this. I hate that black people and rich white people make black people look like morons. That we need the pity vote so we can WIN! It is so annying. Obama shouldn't win. Bottom line. If we are honest, the majority of black people don't vote (their problem) and the fact that they vote based ONLY on the color of someones skin makes them look dumb.

not with the Black people who are only voting for this race b/c a black president is running. They wouldn't be voting if barrack weren't black, meaning that there votes wouldn't be there at all!
[ Reply | Options ]Great! More people voting. Not sure how that is a bad thing, esp. considering how long black voters have been disenfranchised.
[ Reply | Options ]becasue people voting base donly skin color aren't wanted. Whether that be b/c some is balck, or b/c someone is white! Thats horrible. Signed, Black poster.
[ Reply | Options ]You know how many people are voting for HRC b/c she is woman? Who are you to tell someone that they can't be excited that a black man has risen to the very top and they want to support that? Are you really going to tell someone that survived segregation, that they can't be proud and inspired by that? Also, if blacks would vote for any black, then Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would have gotten much further than they did. Maybe it is THIS black man that is the whole package for some blacks? Furthermore (lol), blacks have supported the white dem time and time again and their vote has been considered guaranteed, if the white candidate can't handle having to work for that vote, than that's a problem. Obama will certainly have to shuck and jive for the blue collar vote!
