In no state are blacks anywhere near being in the majority. We elect presidents by the electoral college, which is a state-by-state system.

True. On the other hand, blacks constitute above 15% of the population in states carrying 135 electoral votes, half the total needed for victory. It’s absurd to claim that they’re an unimportant segment of the electorate.
