of the black vote. And Doug Wilder would have goten 90+% of the black vote instead of less than 10%. And Alan Keyes and Carol Moseley-Braun.

But no, black voters have consistently voted overwhelmingly for white candidates, even when black candidates were running. So obviously the fact that 90% of black voters are voting for Obama this time around must be for reasons other than his race. Unless anyone has proof that black people, who have very discerningly voted their interests over their race year after year suddenly got struck stupid this year and made a complete about-face in their voting habits.

The bottom line: some people think that black voting strength is fine when it's targeted toward the benefit of white candidates, but are absolutely scared to death of it when it appears it might help elect a black man.

The bigotry and racial fear is being smoked out and exposed for exactly what it is . . .
