We know that the real reason why Obama was having trouble with Latinos was his poor recognition amongst them. Latinos that were polled also indicated that Bill Clinton was another factor in their voting for Hillary Clinton.
After he became the nominee pundits were quick to point out that Obama needed the Latino vote. That is true, but I remember some of them acting like they were going to flock over to John McCain. I've had two discussions with two guys I know who both said that Latinos were not going to vote for Barack Obama because he is black. Do people still believe racial stereotypes like that? I guess Italians still hate the Irish.
I don't know about you, but I have seen an increase in racism in this area. This is not one of the most tolerant areas. I have heard things about blacks that I didn't expect to hear.
Do people really believe that Barack Obama will "turn over the country to the blacks and turn against whites because of past racism"? I have heard that belief too many times around here.
Well it turns out that Latinos are overwhelmingly backing Barack Obama.
If this trend continues and solidifies McCain will have a problem in states where Latinos make up a strong makeup of the voters.
America has see a lot of talk about race with this election and we have seen a lot of race baiting. I only hope that in the future we get better about race relations.
I was talking to another guy I know who told me Obama can't win the election because everyone voted for him because he is black.
Amazing we can't just get through huh?

Watch for how the corporate media "plants the seed" for who they want to win. In 2004, there were false stories that latinos & blacks broke higher for Bush...later proved false.
The biggest one, is they said the young kids "get out the vote" was a flop. They didn't show up...also proven totally false.
View everything in the corporate media skeptically. They're not lying ALL the time, just "assume" they are, until you find other sources backing what they're saying.
Better yet, chuck the corporate mainstream media (CMSM) and just read those sources!!!
If it has commercials or is owned by a corporation, view it skeptically.
No commercials on Free Speech TV & LINK-TV.
Sheesh. It's too bad we can't let the whole world vote on it. They love him to bits wherever he goes.
Do people really believe that Barack Obama will "turn over the country to the blacks and turn against whites because of past racism"? I have heard that belief too many times around here.
Just part of the same old tactic - just like "Terror Level Orange", new "Osama" videos, and the saber rattling over Iran - "Be afraid!
Be very afraid!
We will save you!!!"
Fortunately it seems more and more people are starting to see through the ruse.
