Finally...I understand where they came from...and people like Wright who used them...They’ve been hoodwinked by the Dems.
Blacks tend to vote in formation, and they have been peeling away from the Democrats, over the last year.
The one good thing about Obama as president is that it’s put an end to the race excuses on many fronts. It will be very hard for race baiters to use it to shake down America.
I know a lot of Hispanics in Arizona and New Mexico who won’t be voting for Obama. (And it’s not about “immigration”.) The Democrats are in big trouble and they know it. I’m not seeing all that enthusiasm among the Native Americans that I saw back in 2008 either.
Nowhere does the article say, but surely Sherrilyn Ifill is related to pro-Obamacommie “journalist” Gwen Ifill. Daugher, niece, cousin, something. “Ifill” isn’t a common name at all — to have two black American women in the media with the same last name...? Naahhh.... c’mon, they gotta be family.
I work with a number of Black NYC transplants (due to a closure and a very strong desire for them to get the heck out of NYC) They are all wonderful friends, the work we do exposes us to the depths of the wealth transfer...and they are as disgusted with the whole mess as we are...I believe, deep in my soul, that King Bozo Obligatory is so over...
“Gwen Ifill isn’t the only member of the family that is writing books about the Age of Obama. So is her brilliant baby cousin, Sherrilyn Ifill.”

“Theyve been hoodwinked by the Dems.”
There’s a reason that our “educational” system which , for the most part, doesn’t educate students. It keeps them uneducated, ignorant and on the plantations.
Apples... trees... and all that jazz.

But, that won’t stop them from trying...
The only people still playing the ‘race’ card are the libtard activists with a vested interest in preserving the politics of victimization; ie, the Ifills, Sharptons, Jacksons, Wrights, and Rangles of the world who have never seen ANY problem in terms other than racial.
It won’t stop them from trying, they just won’t be successful.
I disagree, 99% of black voters will vote for Obama.
” Im not seeing all that enthusiasm among the Native Americans that I saw back in 2008 either.”
You have a point there. Four years ago just about every rez car had an obama sticker. This year I have seen none on any Indian cars. I still believe obama will carry our reservations, but not to the overwhelming extent of 4 years ago.
I have never seen such a sticker or sign. If I did, and if the owner were around, I would kindly let him know that while I too oppose Obama, his sticker is not worthy of modern day America.
I agree. The excitement just isn’t there. If it is, I’m not seeing it.
“I disagree, 99% of black voters will vote for Obama.”
I think it will be close to that. If anything, maybe a little lower than last time, but I don’t think much.
8% of blacks identify as, and vote Republican, in every national election. Given that blacks have suffered more than any other racial demographic under Obama, you can expect that percentage to be a little higher this time around.
Maybe not by a whole lot, but I expect Romney to grab at least 2 to 3 percentage points of the black vote that would ordinarily go to the Democrat.
What's really going to hurt Obama with blacks, is that so many of them are too demoralized and hurting to find the motivation to get to the polls. This is especially true of blacks in the under 30 set.
But this is different, it is Obama we are talking about. When Obama ran in 2008, the Republican candidate got significantly less than 8%.
Believing that large numbers of blacks are going to reject Obama is just wishful thinking.
Wishful thinking, or deduction based upon close and intimate observations?
As a Freeper, I'm actually in a unique position to comment on this. I'm a boomer from a large family of black libs who all voted for Obama. Out of perhaps 40 adults (that I know of) in my immediate and extended family, I'm the only conservative Republican.
Without going into anecdotes, I'll just say that among my family members, the thrill is gone. I doubt if even half of them will get themselves to the polls next month.
