I simply don't see this happening on election day.

Some black clergy see no good presidential choice between a Mormon candidate and one who supports gay marriage, so they are telling their flocks to stay home on Election Day.

"When President Obama made the public statement on gay marriage, I think it put a question in our minds as to what direction he's taking the nation," said the Rev. A.R. Bernard, founder of the predominantly African-American Christian Cultural Center in New York. Bernard, whose endorsement is much sought-after in New York and beyond, voted for Obama in 2008. He said he's unsure how he'll vote this year.

With respect to 4 groups- in all demographic groups-will they get to the polls to actually vote in numbers significant enough to make a difference :

1) Under age 30
2) Hispanic
3) African American
4) ***Those voters who have recently had the burden of a voter -ID requirement taken out of their way, for example the nearly one million in Pa. if the Supreme Court in Pa. disallows the current restriction the lower court upheld (that opinion comes this week) and the logistics are that if a pic ID were required, the state of Pa. says it can only process a fraction of the number of voters under a million that are registered and don't have them.  This also would include all the other states where there has been recent litigation either by a 3 judge panel, a district court judge, or in a state court.  Some of these cases have been brought because of foreclosure on the voting window for early voting.

are much higher than the national average???

Obamanomics is the WORST thing ever to happen to blacks and hispanics.

Not Materialism ?

materialism isnt a government program. shoehorning minorities into houses and credit cards they couldnt afford was...now that its all exploding on them, the big o tells them to eat shit.

I am all for ALL Americans being  able to vote,  but damn if your not educated (black or white) and don't have  at least a high school education,  stay the f___ home.  I remember going to the Library last election to return books and and Lordy bee,  those blacks were saying to others,  "don't forget the color of your skin"  or "don't forget where you came from",  now honey chil IMHO if you is so stupid as to think color of skin should be prerequisite to your vote and you know nothing about policies and issues  (certainly by the very nature of politics,  none of us knows everything and when your biased,  you know nothing)  you DO NOT belong voting.
