Romney Has Zero Percent Support From African Americans In New NBC/WSJ Poll
Mediaite ^ | August. 21, 2012 | Meenal Vamburkar

A new NBC/WSJ poll out Tuesday shows President Barack Obama with a four-point lead over presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney. But as is often the case with polls, some of the more interesting numbers were in the details. For example? Romney snagged zero percent of African-American voters.

Among key demographics, the poll noted that Obama had a lead over Romney. The most stark being when it came to African Americans: 94 percent to 0 percent. Via NBC:

Looking inside the numbers, Obama continues to lead Romney among key parts of his political base, including African Americans (94 percent to 0 percent), Latinos (by a 2-to-1 margin), voters under 35-years-old (52 percent to 41 percent) and women (51 percent to 41 percent).

His lead among those groups isn’t surprising, but hard for the number zero not to catch a person’s attention.

As long as the Gubmint Check shows up, 100% Unemployment in the Black, or Liberal White Community isn't a problem.

However, according to this morning’s WSJ the good news is that Nike is releasing “an expected $315 LeBron James basketball shoe that includes its own electronics.”

They arent 94% to 0 racist. I work with several black small business owners and none of them are in love with Barack. Is the guy on welfare for the past 2 decades all for Obama? Yup. But don’t believe all of blacks are. This is more of the left painting all blacks under the welfare burden brush. There are plenty of black people who work hard and despise the welfare whale lifestyle. This is the left at work. Dont let them win.

Herman Cain had significant support from the "racist" Tea Party.

Mitt Romney has ZERO support from "never racist" black voters.

From having actually communicated with blacks, on Facebook and such, a significant, at least 10% my guess, number of black Democrat supporters just plan on staying home.

94 percent to 0 percent. ............................................... What was God thinking? Did only gave brains to 6% of them? I’d rather have the smart 6% on my side.

Exactly. People sure are quick to believe that all blacks are racist. Sheesh.

We’ll see. There are quite a few black religious that aren’t real happy with The One right now.

The poll sampled 45% Dems, 39% Reps and 13% Ind. With 6% more Dems why would you be surprised that it shows a 4% lead for Obama?

These polls are pretty worthless at this point.

I saw some blacks voluntarily holding the door open for a white girls on crutches today at the court house........

It has been an emotional time for me this last day or so. This with the Akin case. Trying to come down to normalcy. Your post gave me a good feeling.

I was with my wife and young daughter with her school friend seeing Chicago. This was many years ago. I stopped my mini-van with Canadian licence plates near Jackson on the South side of Chicago. I had lost my way. A man pulled up parallel to my vehicle. He was African American. He showed me a badge and told me "Please do not stop here, I am a volunteer neighbourhood patrol." He gave directions to Skokie where we were staying, it is predominately jewish there. I thanked him and I said "You are an ambassador". He gave me a big grin and said "once a fireman, always a fireman".

A bit of a ramble, but we have got to let people know we do try to "speak as we find"- old country saying. Sure, I know there is hate for whitey out there, but well..... enough said.

No, there are plenty of Black conservatives so a zero tells me there is a fundamental error in the poll’s sample.

I’m willing to bet a very large percentage of Obamatons don’t even know who Romney is. Or Ryan. Or Biden.

Yep. No surprise. If St. Peter were running, blacks would still vote for Obama.

For example? Romney snagged zero percent of African-American voters.

BFD.
