Yes, it certainly better than what Trump will receive but that's not the point.

What HC needs a much higher percentage than 73% of the AA vote to overcome the advantage Trump has with White voters.

And this won't be easy. My guess is after eight years of Obama not doing a whole lot for AA the Black turnout will be diminished this election.

I also believe Trump will do much better with the AA vote than has been predicted. I can see him getting between 9-13% which combined with a lower AA turnout will be costly for HC.

What do the other polls say? Anyone can cherry pick the polls.

That is very strange. Just today, Obama's approval rating jumped up to 58%. Somebody likes him.

Maybe it was the latest report on how well the economy is doing, even though some of you feel the end of civilization is coming.

Let's address reality.....obama isn't running for president anymore. And this stat is a warning signal for her in regards to the black vote/support.

As for "how well" the economy is doing under obama, tell that to many in the middle class and blacks:
Is Black America Better Off Under Obama? | BlackPressUSA

"What planet African Americans are doing “better off” on is unknown. What is known is that President Obama is about to leave office with African Americans in their worst economic situation since Ronald Reagan. A look at every key stat as President Obama starts his sixth year in office illustrates that."

And things are looking grim in his hometown:http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/...Mqm?li=BBgzzfc

Trump is only leading among white men that do not have a degree and African Americans are not a significant portion of the electorate. Also, 9-13% of AA's going for Trump seems high. I don't even remember the last time the GOP won that many votes from AA's.

I wouldn't take it that way. Its not deflection, more comic relief, but mostly have zero interest in trying to find any information to make either of these clowns look palatable because its all just grasping at straws. I mean one of them has to win this stupid election, but it certainly won't be because a majority of folks are clamoring for either of their leadership.
