Obama's remarks have no impact because black people don't care what he says. Black people just want a black president. They could care a less who it is. Information could come out that shows Obama was responsible for 9/11 and black america would still vote for the guy. It's truly pathetic. Perhaps it is a telling sign of how poor our inner city schools are.
I don't know which part of the country you are located in or where you get your local/national news from; but do you honestly believe that Barack is ahead b/c Black people are voting for him? Wow. America is really going down the drain.

Lets start with the basics here - do you even know what the African American population is in this country and where it is concentrated? 90% sure is a huge # but here is the catch. I'll use the state of VA to illustrate to you.
African Americans make up 12% of the entire state's population. Lets take out the minors that would probably leave you with 9%. Of this 9%, lets just assume about 60% are able to vote and perhaps voted. For rounding purposes this 9% is down to 8%. Now 7/10 of this 8% voted for Obama lets assume - What does that leave us with? As far as the numbers go.....

why do you find the need to apologise. Obama appeals to blacks and other ethnic groups. and he appeals to 33% whites....
America slipped into the toilet with the "selection" of the Bush/cheney cabal/thug-farm. No one...not even McSame...could possibly do a worse job than this confederacy of dunces has done. This country may never crawl out from the quagmire these cowardly frat boyz have thrown us into.
It depends on what poll you look at. In many polls McCain leads both Obama and Clinton now. That is not something that shows he has had smooth sailing. It will get worse in the general election. Too early to tell much really.
