Read the rest of my post. Bush got 18% of the Ohio black vote BECAUSE of the anti-gay issue on the ballot. It drew enough independent and conservative blacks out who normally would have stayed home. Once in the booth, they voted for Bush.

Local pundits agreed that there was no other explanation for the unprecedented black vote for Bush.

Believe me, if it were a proven fact that Obama is gay, he would be a pariah in the black community.

But Bush was not running against a black candidate in the Democrat party. Do you really think that Bush would have received 18% of the black vote if Obama, who openly supports homosexual causes had been running? I don't think so.

I sincerely hope you are right in your assessment. I just am not seeing a diminishing of support for Obama among blacks. After 3 years of Obama and his destructive policies, his support among blacks is virtually the same. When I talk to my black friends and associates, they act like Obama has performed miracles in the past 3 years. They do not see any problems whatsoever with man. Any criticisms are quickly attributed to racism. That's it. No need to think about it. No need to hold Obama accountable for anything. He inherited all the problems, etc, etc, but has done an amazing job and should be reelected.
