There are people who had not even considered others for president because of their skin color for a couple hundred years, what's the difference? And if you think McCain didn't get a bunch of votes because of his skind color, you are sadly mistaken. In fact, he wouldn't have gotten nearly as many that he did if he wasn't white. The blowout would have been much worse.
Why do you just assume that blacks voted for Obama because he is black and not because he represent their values best? Did Jesse Jackson get 90% of the black vote? Did Alan keyes get 90% of the black vote? It is a LIE that black people voted for Obama just because he was black.
But it is true that whites voted for McCain because he is white? Why do you assume whites voted for McCain because he is white or voted against Obama because he is black?
If you go back and look at the facts and results that have been posted on here because of your idiotic postings, you would see how wrong you are. You assume a vast majority, when it was barely a minority.
If you believe the crap you're spewing, stop registering to vote.
Well duh.....McCain didn't get all of the white votes because HE LOST! I'm making the point that Obama won because he was the best candidate and NOT because he was black. YOU and others are saying that he got votes because he is black and it is way too easy to shoot that idiotic thinking down.
The way to fix the electoral college is to follow the plan already used in Nebraska and Maine...one electoral vote for winning each Congressional district plus two for winning a state overall.
A vote in California shouldn't be worth more than 18 times more than a vote in Wyoming.
Using the 2008 state results with the 2012 electoral college breakdown, if the Republicans hold all states McCain won in 2008 only Florida, Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio, and Virginia would need to flip to Republican to reverse the overall result. Several of those six states are already in the likely to flip category.
The only person saying it is because of race, either way, is you. You injected race into it when it had absolutely no bearing on the conversation. You are the one that still treat non-whites as victims. You see one incident of rascism, then apply it to every single person. You're as bad as people who are part of groups like al-Qaeda and Muslims Against Crusades.
