The majority of minorities will always vote Democrat. Race ALWAYS trumps moral, ethical, and religious values.

This goes for Hispanics as well as blacks. Somehow, over the course of time, they have begun to believe that Democrats have their best interests at heart.

98% voted for him last time.
Unless the republicans run a black candidate I wouldn't expect any less than 97% this time.

Look at how Detroit was run into the ground. Coleman Young for 20 years. That was 20 years of destroying the city. I wouldn't expect any less at a national level.

For illegal immigrant hispanics, the Democrats do have their best interest. Not so for legal, hardworking Hispanics. Or any race, actually.

Default Obama here thru 2016

Absolutely blacks will vote for Obama. He's been an excellent president and he's far superior than ANY Republican. What a ridiculous inquiry.

Black people usually vote for the best and most qualified person and the choice is easy now. Obama the clear choice!

Well, for one, I recognize the fact that almost a decade of damage from banks, the government, and greedy homeowners, and the results of the general economic crash, can't be fixed in only 2 years... did you expect Obama to just wave a wand and fix everything within this short time period?

The Republicans do not have the best interests of Black people in mind, and thankfully 90+% of Black people recognize that. That won't change in 2012.

Of course they will. They're lost in more ways than one.

Yes, Obama has been excellent at increasing the national debt even faster than Bush did!
