So, basically, you want us to vote for Obama because the apocalypse will occur if we elect Romney. Am I getting this right?lavadisk wrote:

And get this.. THE WORLD HAS A LOT TO DO WITH US. OBAMA HAS BEEN DOING IT WELL. You republicans want a world war huh? And you want rioters in our country? You probably don't.
VOTE OBAMA. How do you not understand that they are both puppets.. Vote for Obama.. He already has experience.. You don't want a dumb ass learning how to rule our country when the population goes up and job market gets more strict. There won't be enough prisons for everyone and some of the rioters will be college kids who are educated and cant find a job.
VOTE OBAMA ( my family is in the Masons. ) trust me.
That makes complete logical sense. /sarcasm

Lets not pretend like it isn't a huge overwhelming part of why he endorses Obama.
According to a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, President Obama is beating his Republican opponent among black voters by a whopping 94 percent to 0 percent. The numbers are pretty brutal for Romney among Latinos, as well: he's losing to the president almost 2 to 1. The poll has President Obama ahead among all registered voters, 48 percent to Romney's 44 percent.
I'm voting for Obama and still hold a favorable view of Powell but you don't get 95%+ of the black vote because they like his policiesJust 58 percent of blacks have a “strongly favorable” view of the president, a steep drop from the 83 percent who said so five months ago.
Obama is not totally out of favor: Eighty-six percent still say that they hold at least a somewhat favorable view of him.
Guys, there is just no way he is serious. I refuse to believe he could be. Sure, internet sarcasm can be hard to detect, but this HAS to be. I think it's a case of reverse psychology. Right guys? Right!?lavadisk wrote:

Not all blacks are voting Obama.
you*re wright. you get 94% of the black vote if you're a black man running for president because you are black, and want to try out the 15th amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in 1870 and the lily white, racialist country you lived in still had to pass another act in 1964 which eventually led to an opportunity for a black man to successfully run for president in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Eight.Macbeth wrote:

you racist fuck.
Anyways, regardless of the specifics as to why he earned the black vote, I think it's going to be difficult for him to earn the percentage of that black demographic again because the second time round just doesn't hold the same groundbreaking weight. Not that it can't happen, but I don't see it happening to the same extent, at least.

no, i disagree Pochsy, because black people in America in discouragingly large numbers are "low fi" voters - General Colin Powell's endorsement only highlights the the color of your skin does not correlate with the intelligence of your mind. Most "African-Americans" will vote because, in their lifetime, they have not had a candidate that 'looked' like them (John Sunnunu, New Hampshire Governor and Bush Chief of Staff, October 26th, 2012.)Pochsy wrote:

This American election will highlight the difference in the way candidates seek votes, based on skin color. It's why John Boehner is able to keep his seat in Florida, with all the orange snow birds returning him into office. Oompa-Loompas need representation too.

I think you're right to an extent. I agree that most American voters (and everywhere else for that matter) are disinterested in politics, and vote only on superficial grounds. With that, I think it is also important to remember that most of the American vote is fixed already. The support Obama is getting from the black community largely already existed, in fact it never seems to have dipped below about 65% of the black vote going to the democratic party. With that, Obama did get the largest portion of the Black vote to date. I think, however, that has to do with a small group of actual issue-based voters who occupy the swing vote in the middle of the political spectrum, and that it will be more difficult for him to win them just based on his race this time around.13urnzz wrote:

Here's the Graph I'm using for black presidential voting patterns: http://www.factcheck.org/2008/04/blacks … tic-party/
The means by which the swing vote is altered can be argued endlessly (if I had a water-tight answer I sure as fuck wouldn't share without payment), but I just think he's lost a key selling feature in this election: that of history making.
EDIT- I could actually provide figures and explain why this isn't a complete answer, but fuck it, this is bf2s. the swing vote is about 7% of the population, so even if that entire 7% were black it don't answer shit. people switch parties though, which makes up for a small portion (maybe giving a total of 10%) of people who cannot be called disinterested.

sometimes, parties switch people. if Jon Huntsman (the only fiscal conservative that ran in the republican primaries) had won the nomination, i would vote republican this time around. the republicans got hijacked by their fringe element, the active wing in any primary. obama ran uncontested, but in 08 secured the democratic nomination because he was left of (shudder) Hillary Clinton. mind fuck America is ok with a woman VP, but even democrats would rather see the brother of another mother than a woman in the white house. even a white woman.Pochsy wrote:

you see, the 15th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America gave the black man the right to vote, and it wasn't until the 19th amendment was ratified that women could cast a ballot. we have always believed in the right to Life, Liberty, and Happiness - we just never believed darkies and split tails were included in that belief.
our "Founding Fathers" capitalized the word 'Men'.the U.S. Declaration of Independence wrote:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men,
they meant 'white men'. Forever and ever, amen.
i say we make the winner of this election President of Ohio, and then hold a popular vote for the other 49 states.

Zogby released his latest poll. he asked "What is the most important thing you will do in the next two weeks?"
24% said they would vote in the upcoming presidential election.
76% said they would go see 'Skyfall'. the new James Bond film.
there you go.

Daniel Craig for president!
The only black people I know of that wouldn't vote for Obama are people who are extremely Conservative Christians, I know one or two black people like that. One of them said the world is going to hell if Obama is re-elected.Pochsy wrote:

A lot of the more enlightened black people I know who choose to at least consider other perspectives seemed to actually like a lot of Ron Paul's ideals but like so many other people also seemed to feel that a Libertarian party vote(on somebody who isn't Ron Paul himself at that) is a wasted vote so they would just as well vote for Obama again if only to keep 47%-hating Romney out of office.
I think many are also afraid of the Uncle Tom label for voting for anybody other than Obama as well, at first I thought that might be the major motivation for a lot of people and I asked my open-minded friend if that was his reason, and he said he wasn't worried about that, he just felt he could trust a black man in office better than he could trust a white man, which obviously makes a lot more sense, lol
I have seen many religious black celebrities getting all kinds of hate messages on Twitter and Facebook from other black people when they openly endorse Romney, calling them race traitors and whatnot. It must be an awful existence when a large group of people feel like you owe them something(even if you believe otherwise, as you have a right to) just because your skin color is the same as them, it's totally killing progress and individuality for a very large amount of free-thinking people and the world in general, but that's exactly how people in high places want it to stay so they can rule over that many more people who feel that sense of obligation
So you're basically calling Colin Powell a racist.Macbeth wrote:
