In 2000, George W. Bush won the White House with just 9% of the Black vote. Kerry had 84% and Bush 12% of the Black vote in August. now, it’s 82% Kerry, 14% Bush, which is very good for Dubya

I'm certainly no expert, but somebody said a couple years ago that if W were able to win an extra 5% of the Black vote, it would devastate his Democratic challenger. 9% + 5% = 14%! (Goosebumps!)

This is why Kerry is sitting in a pulpit with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Expect the numbers to go up to 15% by the end of the week.
