From urban dictionary:

1. vunnable

Derogatory and racist blanket term for low-income, poorly educated, socially ignorant African-Americans generally used by Houston radio talk show host Michael Berry and his fans.

Derived from Texas congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who spoke about the vulnerable demographic groups, and a caller into the Michael Berry show who mispronounced it as "vunnable." The rest is history, resulting in a modern "safe" alternative to the N-word.

It's a given that the vunnables will vote for Obama in 2012...if they even registered to vote.

If the definition is based on actions, not appearance, then how can it be racist?

Thanks. It’s the first time I have heard the term. Just another synonym for low information voter, etc.
