I don't get that one. Because he's black? I certainly don't think MOST people for him voted BECAUSE he's black. That's a really odd comment. There were certainly a lot of people who voted AGAINST him because he was black and maybe some Afro-Americans came out to vote in greater numbers because he was black, and maybe his race was involved in the CHANGE thing to some point. But I don't think race was the main thing. I am as white as snow and I certainly don't care what color he was. I just wanted a smart person who could undo the evils of the last eight years. I think most people voted for him because of Change and Smarts.
Ohwell.
