To say blacks are voting for Obama cause he is black is a bit presumptuous, 90% of blacks vote democrat (yes that is a factual statistic) do you expect that to be any different with a black candidate?


thats what i was going to say.


Is this supposed to be surprising?



Its more of an economic / social issue for black people voting democrat. If they wanted to see a black president i would imagine this to be icing on the cake; by no means is it the main reason. Thats just historically how they vote for the most part.

I don't know why this would be shocking...
