I'm predicting that one of the most remarkable stories of this election will be Trump's strong performance among black voters.

People tend to forget that black Americans trace their roots in this country back further than many whites do. They have more to lose in a large-scale Latin American invasion than anyone else.

Trump's strong performance among black voters

Yup, the culture espouses Alpha Dogs, and Trump is as Alpha as they come.

My prediction, if/when Hillary! loses, is that the theme will be "America just wasn't ready for a female president." No overt sexism, but it certainly will be implied.

Smart operators will watch what Trump did to court the black vote. Much as Trump watched how BO ran his campaign in 2008, and to a lesser extent, 2012. IMO, we're seeing 2008 redux, with Trump largely playing the role of Obama, only without the fawning media coverage.

“They have more to lose in a large-scale Latin American invasion than anyone else.”

Bernie Sanders made that same point. I wish Trump would emphasize it more often, and pick up not only some Sanders voters but some additional black voters as well.
