Racist Tactics: Obama …Will Get all the African American votes in GA and MS
“I’m probably the only candidate who, having won the nomination, can actually redraw the political map,” Obama replied to a question about his strategy from a Concord, N.H., woman at a house party last August. Pacing around the old Victorian home, the wooden floor creaking, Obama went on: “I’ll give you one specific example: Mississippi is 40% African American, but it votes 25% African American. If we just got the African Americans in Mississippi to vote their percentage, Mississippi is suddenly a Democratic state. And Georgia may be a Democratic state. Even South Carolina starts being in play. And I guarantee you African-American turnout, if I’m the nominee, goes up 30% around the country, minimum.”
It was an extraordinary boast, five months before the start of the primary season. But he stuck to it as the race with Hillary Clinton wore on through the winter and spring. Whenever Clinton asserted that Obama couldn’t win states like Ohio and Pennsylvania, he would respond by saying he could bring other states into play, especially in the South.

I do not see any of those Southern States going blue even with the African Americans voting. He only got 2% of the White vote in most of those states that leaves him with 42% of the State. If you count White Democrats it would look like a win but it is highly unlikely that the White people in the South who are very conservative will vote for him because he is a liberal. The college kids are not going to help him and they are easily distracted and the kool aid may have worn off at that time.
Right, and we who won’t vote for him — we are the racists — OUTRAGEOUS!
