Black women voted 96% to 3% for Obama. They comprised 8% of the electorate. Black men voted 87% to 11% for Obama. Interesting difference.
Wonder if the women side is due to their being single moms and needing/wanting freebies
They’re not called Gibsmedats for nothing!
No doubt the case. With 73% of blacks being born out of wedlock, the government is viewed as Daddy and provider.
“Wonder if the [black] women side is [higher than black men side] due to their being single moms and needing/wanting freebies.”
Probably. Plus, probably there are more black male voters who are conservative than black female voters because men in general are more conservative than female voters.
Black women vote 96% for Obama....most likely because however invalid it may be in reality, Obama is seen by them as a successful black man who married a black woman and is the always on scene father of their two daughters. He is perceived as the ‘black father knows best’ which is MISSING from their urban existence and deep down the source of virtually all its woes. Black women are women first who crave a family life congruent with what nature intended, not picking up checks at a welfare office and having a host of black men with the morality of farm animals sire and abandon their kids.
