Fox news had a couple of PPLs on their election night panel and one made a statement: "The fact that white people are voting for Romney at a 60% rate says that there's still a racial divide, in this country"
The "anchor" asked: "What about black people voting for the president in the 90 percentile?"
Thye PPL's answer was: "Well, I think ideologically, the president resonates with the people of the African American community ..."
So, 60% of white people vote for the person that speaks to them and it's racisn but 90% of all registered black voters vote for a socialist and there's no racism involved. Okay. I'm fully briefed.
Peace and comfort,

Since 1936, between 71% and 94% of black voters have voted for the Democratic party. Lyndon Johnson received a higher percentage of the black vote in 1964 (surpassing even the percentage that Obama did yesterday). And for those unaware, Lyndon Johnson is white. To me the numbers we see reflect the fact that blacks historically vote Democrat, and really nothing more. Otherwise, why is Johnson getting more black vote than Obama?
Carter won in 1976 with 48% of the white vote. Clinton won in 1992 with only 39% of the white vote. Whites do not historically vote for Democrats.
What conclusions can you reasonably draw from these actual facts within their historical context. I draw the conclusion that historically, whites vote predominantly Republican. And when we break down the white vote, what we see historically is that privileged white males almost always vote Republican. Working class whites, and white women tend to split more evenly between the parties. Given the Republican party platform, this should hardly shock anyone. People of privilege who want to protect their own and not share with others vote for the party that promises to deliver exactly that.
Blacks are not voting for Obama because he is black. They are voting for him because he is a Democrat.
Whites are not voting for Romney because he is white. They are voting for him because he is a Republican.
The one conclusion I can draw is that a lot of whites are just not into compassion or sharing or sense of community. I guess they were never taught that value in either their elite private school or their wealthy neighborhood public playgrounds. Oh that's right, they didn't have to share because everyone had a lot of stuff already. Oh, and until 1954, blacks weren't even allowed to go to schools with whites. Got it. I'm fully briefed now, too.
You can keep pointing this out,over and over again....and it still won't sink in.
Some idiot will come along and suggest that the large % of blacks voting for Obama proves a racism or some such rot.
It's all so much white noise,it's an idiots stock in trade
