I voted in the year Obama got elected. I have never seen so many black people in my whole life. While standing in line, I talked to dozens of black voters (newly registered) about how this was their first time voting, and they were voting "just so one of our kind gets in that white man's office". True quote. Easily remembered because that's about all I heard from them.
Record numbers of newly registered black voters voted during Obama's election year. Put that with the white Democrats and soft-conservatives turned off by McCain and eager for the "Change" Obama promised, and the US saw its first black man elected to its highest office. To deny that color wasn't a factor in Obama's election is ridiculous. Surely, DrPhil can't be that ignorant.
Now, how many black candidates were in a position to win the election before Obama's campaign? I mean, in a position where Democrats, blacks, and soft-conservatives would be willing to vote against the Republican candidate to elect the black candidate. Yeah, none.
Herman Cain has no chance at office. And he is not as polished as Obama is public speaking. So even if Cain was the Republican candidate, Obama would wipe him clean in a debate, thus wiping him clean in an election. Due to the fact that 1. Those newly registered black voters would vote again. 2. Those black voters watch tv and see that Obama surely is the better candidate because he speaks better. And 3. Democrats and soft-conservatives are still waiting for that change Obama has promised.
