I'm not saying that he didn't get the Lion's share of the Black vote....What I mean is that I don't think he got it because he was black......I think he got it because of what they thought he could do for them, He had a MUCH better marketing campaign than McCain did

.
Clinton also got the Lion's share of the black vote when he was elected....as well as most Democrats the past few elections.
People were just dissillusioned....Hope and Change.....A Good Slogan....Marketing 101
