I just think you are reading a bit too much into my posts.

I never said he would have been elected even if he wasn't black.

I did say there were a lot of voters who voted for him because of his phony line of crap ... and they would have voted for anyone, of any color, who had the same line of crap. They didn't care if he was black, green or purple ... as long as he was promising everything Obama promised, those voters would have voted for him.

There wouldn't have been enough of just those voters to elect him, and yes his being black did contribute a lot to his election. But he had to have more voters than just those who voted for him because he was black.

Clinton got elected didn't he? Jimmy Carter got elected. They are not black. So someone has to be voting for these clowns for some reason other than race. That's what I was saying.

The racist vote alone would never have elected him.
