Its the same issue that looms so large. The same issue that keeps democrats from voting for nayone that is pro-life for the federal judgeships. Its just beliefs.But their are alot of peole on both sides of teh issue that will vote for the other candidate;just that the majpority won't.
Obama has at least 5 years in the US Senate, and has passed major bills, he has helped clean up his district in IL, he has traveled to South America and Mexico, he knows how to balance at least a million dollar budget, his VP said Obama has all the experience that the POTUS needs and also says we dont need someone like McCain to do 'on the job training', Obama has great economic plans that he knows will work because he tried it out in Illinois, etc.
Wow you have convinced me. The percentage is now over 95%.
BTW did I mention that he's a great speaker?

Evidently, many - including both black and white Americans believe that he is the better candidate, (including Republicans) and I don't believe that it is because of his race. considering the results of the last 8 years and the support of the opponent for this administration's economic policies, for example. God bless.
The impression is a lot of blacks are voting for Obama because Obama is black (actually a “white-and-black” guy) and not because he is a democrat.
Then what explains similar black overwhelming support for Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry? What do these three white guys and Obama have in common? Perhaps they are all Democrats and best candidates in their times?
