Because the black demographic have typically always voted in excess of 90% for Democratic candidates, if 20%+ had voted for a black Republican you may have a point. Are you simply unaware of that or just disingenuous? The Black demographic do not vote 95% for 'any black candidate'
PP, Look up the "demographics % " and you will see Obama and other BLACK candidates BY and LARGE get about 95% of the votes of the black populace...I have no desire to discuss this fact any longer. But in the USA today this is a FACT in most all elections...PP if you don't believe this info it is because YOU DON"T WANT TO...And oh yes Obama received 56% of the white vote on his election...No race corners the market on FAIRNESS, whether you like the results or not...Cheers. P.S. SLAAKA and I declared a cease fire, so let peace reign again on ESB.:hi:
How about you look up the facts instead of making them up Burt? Around 43% of whites voted for Obama not 56%. 68% of Latinos voted for Obama, Jews 78% and 62% of Asians. Yet only 43% of whites, did the whites who voted for McCain at a higher rate than other ethnicities do so because he was white? According to your logic they did. But that would be ignoring that Obama got a higher percentage of the white vote than any Democrat since Carter Blacks have always voted at around 90% for Democrats, voting at 95% for a black democrat proves nothing. 94% of blacks voted for Clinton, Gore 90%, Kerry 88%. Show me the demographics of 'blacks always voting at 95% for black candidates' because you're full of stories. But I'm guessing you haven't looked up any of these numbers and your knowledge of politics extends to whatever Fox News tells you
PP.This is the last straw...Who the hell are you to say to me what I read and what I watch ...If I read Fox News that is my freakin business, and I will not be lectured and vilified by the likes of YOU..I have tried to be cordial on this Forum for over 2 years. I have refrained from "RACIAL politics, and I see I might be a minority on this forum, and I'm too weary to fight political correctness...Some of the best posters have left for sundry reasons lately,and if I have to be insulted by posters who know they can get away with it, so maybe my time is coming soon... Furthermore PP, whoever you are, I served MY country, I have been tolerant of all oppressed individuals all my life...And I don't need to be insulted by you,and yes NOW I WILL WATCH FOX NEWS, knowing now that whatever you hate, is WORTH WATCHING... P.S. Look up the internet and see where Obama received about 96% of the black vote, whilst 43% of whites voted for Obama too...The truth might set you free...Sayonara...:hi:
burt u conceded to me in a prior post McCains poz on MLK day in his home state of AZ would sink his ship with the black vote. In addition to that blacks are tradiotion Democratic voters.
So basically I've refuted all your ill-informed ignorant lies and you can't come up with any counter argument. So instead of standing corrected you get insulted that the source of your ill-informed ignorant lies, ie Fox News gets criticised And you bring up the fact you served your country to defend your ignorance
PP, take all of your PC garbage and stuff it. I loved ESB, but I abhor reverse discrimination...Obama 96% of the Black vote. !!! You call me ignorant. Your a vile person PP. Thank you ESB......:hi:
