Found this to be interesting. Also, discuss the poll. |

I guess if the map is trying to point out that blacks primarily voted for Barack then it just seems kind of obvious. Don't know what to say about that really. I do know that if a massive number of whites, Hispanics, and Asians(from all demographics and regions) hadn't also voted for him he wouldn't have won.
What I would like to say though is that it's nice to see a post of yours again. It's been a while. |

Maybe they agree with his politics?
Sidenote: The Wii is awesome. That is all. |

As for the poll, I don't care what another person does with their own money - or why. But I'm curious as to what the 'wrong' reasons would be. I'm assuming something to do with tax deductions. |

if whites had voted the way that blacks did, obama would not be president. |

McCain could have been god himself and the blacks still would have voted for Obama. |
