There are lots of groups of people who will not vote for a Black president, but I don’t see older people as necessarily falling into that demographic. Hispanics will not vote Black (one even stood up at during the Lutz focus group and declared this), many Koreans and other Asian groups, who have suffered in Black neighborhoods, won’t vote for a Black man either.
The reasons that Obama is not doing well with older voters is probably because many older voters are better informed and not basing their votes on such superficial attributes as race.
Please. Asians create plenty of crappy neighborhoods complete with gangs on their own.
We moved from our last neighborhood when the swat team came out for the Asian family up the block.
