Quote:I think you're missing the point here.
How many Black people would choose a person based on race rather than qualifications? How many White people would choose a person based on race rather than qualifications?
If Whites were as racist as you claim, McCain would have THE EXACT SAME kind of lead among Whites that Obama has among Blacks. Even among the states where McCain has his highest leads, I wouldn't think he leads by any more than around 60~70% among Whites.
Afrobean, I couldn't tell you what race is voting based on race more because I'm not just basing my thoughts off a few percentages. What I can tell you that in my opinion a person who is voting for McCain because they don't want a mixed man in the White House is certainly worse than a person who is voting for said person because they want to see a "first".
I'm sure my post contains a boatload of assumptions. You are smart enough that you don't need me to point them out and explain them.
