WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrat Barack Obama holds a two-to-one lead over Republican John McCain among low-wage workers but many are uncommitted to either presidential candidate, to according to a new poll by The Washington Post, the Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University.

"The poll included interviews with 1,350 randomly selected workers 18 to 64 years of age who put in at least 30 hours a week but earned $27,000 or less last year, the newspaper said."
"Ninety-two percent of African Americans chose Obama as the candidate most concerned with their problems; not a single black respondent said that about McCain, the Post said."
Harvard, Kaiser and WaPo...all Liberal entities with an agenda for Socialism. They are all biased
Nearly 100% of blacks are voting for Obama as it is their one chance to get back at "white" America as they see it. Liberals just want more power to tax, regulate and force Marxism down our throats (see Pelosi, Reid, Global Poverty Tax, reparations for slavery, World Court, Fairness Doctorine...)
Conclusion: McCain should now push for closing the border as it alludes to the fact that Latinos are going to vote for Obama and all his kneeling and groveling at LULAC and La Raza did no good.
A candidate that promises to rob Peter to pay Paul can count on the enthusiastic support of Paul.
Bingo!
susie
Yet Whites are considered racist if they don't vote for a Black candidate. Hmmmm.....
Interesting. Nearly 25% of US adults are losers.
Why did Reuters publish this article? You can come up with numerous other demographic groups that would poll heavily for McCain? (Those who work for a living, etc.) The MSM sucks.
The day before election day, there will be a banner headline in the New York Times, Barack Obama leads 2 to 1 among people named "Obama"...
Or even if the candidate promises to beat the heck out of Peter,
take all his money, and keep it for himself,
he often will have the full support of Paul, if,
prior to the assault and robbery,
he has told Paul that Peter is the reason that Paul is poor.
That's an interesting conclusion given the topic of the report. Low-wage and black Americans supporting Obama leads to McCain should push for closing the border.
"?"
I cannot, in good conscience, vote for Obama, because the Presidency of the United States is NOT AN ENTRY LEVEL POSITION and Obama does not have the experience for the job.
Lucky for us, they are more likely to stay home and watch the election on TV than go and vote in it.
They conceded the fact that most low-income people will never achieve, and need the government to live. They provide housing, food, medicine, some money and health care to people for having children without fathers...and the benefits increase as the # of kids increases
This creates a vacuum that although you will not be well-off, you will survive and vis a vis with “public” education, you will be fully indoctrinated to think it isn't your fault and you deserve more, simply by being born.
Responsibility is second to your God-given rights to a middle-class lifestyle.
This keeps the Democrats, Obama, Jesse Jackson, etc. in power in those communities. The need to be championed for more that you are being told is being withheld from you is their source of power. Most middle class people of any race understand it takes pride and hard work (humility - trust me I know this, I was laid off a month ago yesterday) to just be able to drive, eat and pay the rent/mortgage.
The Left concedes that they know BETTER than you do by forcing people into the workforce, making tests easier, easing sentencing of criminals and increasing tax rates on the successful. The goal is to have 75% of your earnings being re-delivered to those the Liberals feel are “worthy” of you earnings, not who succeeds, but the “underrepresented” or “unfortunate”.
Note, all of the new information on AIDS and its terrible effects on minorities...and not ONE piece was dedicated to the fact that it is 100% preventable with condoms or clean needles...not ONE place put blame on the people, it was all the government's fault for not spending more money on the problem.
Irresponsibility or wanton desire is Liberal power...gay rights, abortion on demand, social services to able-bodied people...and Hollywood and the MSM reinforce this concept.
Hillary, Nancy, Harry and Barack want to think for you and let the good old UN dictate how much we should pay for others, not have our own self-determined futures. The rich should be punished for the more deserving poor.
Conclusion: McCain isn't my first choice, but you have to vote for him...there IS no other option.
Since that info is missing from the article, my guess is those comparisons would not be favorable for the messiah.
This means - Obama leads McCain among those least likely to vote.
...And Muslim communities across the nation.
Juan Williams today had an op-ed talking about race
where 31?% of white people had a favorable view of Obama
whil 83% of blacks had a favorable view of Obama.
Of course, the whites are racist, but the blacks aren’t.
