It is no secret that a great number of people voted for the current
president *because* of his skin color . . . .

How 'great' a number of people [do you think] voted against the
current
president because of his skin color?
Inquiring minds . . . .


There may have been a few, but as a personal opinion, not many.

I could have predicted that response.

OTOH, do you really believe that the 96% black vote that he garnered was
*not* based upon racism?

He's a Democrat; Any Democrat would have gotten 96% of the black
vote.

Umm, no. Although blacks predominantly vote Democrat, which is completely
baffling considering the results of the programs Democrats have foisted upon
them for the past 50 years, the previously largest percentage was 94% for
Johnson in 1964 after the Republicans helped him pass the civil rights act.
Clinton garnered 74% in 1992, Gore got 90% in 2000, Kerry got 88%. 96% was
pretty much unprecedented.

Actually the black population is a case study in what happens to a group
that allows itself to become a dependency class. Look at the unemployment
rate, the percentage of unwed, single parent households in that group. It
was not always that way. Before the growth of welfare, those rates were
equivalent to the rest of the country (especially the family statistics).
Congress has just passed a law that is going to try to transform the rest of
the country into a dependency class.
