Do you think blacks will vote for Obama just because he's black? From the many discussion I've had with friends, co-workers neighbors ECT, it seems to me that they tend to make decisions as a group and not as individuals.
And I don't want to hear any cry babies talking about me saying "blacks" as being racist. Just answer the question, yes I'm politically incorrect, I deal with facts not emotion on subjects such as these. And no I'm not racist I was married to a black women.

I don't think blacks would vote for Obama because he's black that would be a bit ridiculous and pathetic! I think they should vote for him if they think he can make a difference to society, the iraq war and people's lives, first they must trust him thou and believe or try to beleive his policies.... I think people should vote as individuals, they should make up their own minds jeez thats why we got one.....

I am white and yes, I think blacks will vote for Obama just because he's black. Look at the reaction of blacks following the O.J. Simpson verdict returned by the mostly black and obviously prejudiced jury. It was obvious he was guilty and was let go by a run-away jury. People say only whites can be racist but that's not what I or anyone with an open mind sees if they watch closely.

Blacks are going to vote for Obama as he is black and is in the democratic party. It does not affect my decision becuase for example in India the prime-minister is a Sikh, Sikhs are only 3% of India's population. So Blacks are 12% of the population, so it does not matter.

saying blacks is not being racests saying ***** with the er and no O then that is wrong (i just wanted to make that evident) but i think a lot of black ppl would vote for him just because he is black , mainly because we dont hav a leader if u think about it all of our leaders had been shot down by the white man....malcom x, luther king jr, etc... so when we see a good brotha making it like that we want to support that... so u have to understand....im so used to turning cops on and seeing black men (and teens) going to jaill im getting to the point where i dont want to watch it anymore and when u have someone like barrack obama makin it in the world we just want to support him.....

I think most people who vote for him will do so because they appreciate his policies or because they're committed Democrat voters. Some may vote for him because he's black - I can understand that people would choose to do that because they might feel better represented by a black candidate.

Yes, most definitely, blacks will vote for Obama simply because he's black.
Why do you think you're politically incorrect for using the word "black"? And, why do you feel you need to describe your ex?wife as "black"? Wasn't she simply a woman?

You think blacks are the only ones that make decisions as a group?
Better take a look at the number of people that follow conservative and liberal leaders, even when it's obvious they don't have a clue about the facts.

Well I would not judge a person on skin color alone, I would have no problem voting for a black candidate as lon as his political views align with mine. I am conservative and base my vote soley on that idea.

I would think he would be called a selout, like Condi Rice, Colin Powell or Judge Clarence Thomas.
Not being mean, but is that true?

pc is just a way to control speech.
I think many will. Most americans are brainwashed by the mainstream media, and they don't know what the politicians are doing.
