He won because the the Republican party has alienated everyone whom is not rich or white, not because some black people showed up to vote. The simple fact is white people no longer make up the majority in this country and due to the GOP's actions against those minorities, the GOP has a shrinking voter pool. The GOP running a token black guy or Hispanic whom has zero ties to 99% of minorities in this country doesn't make them vote Republican it just angers them more.

The GOP has a very hard path in it's future and they are making it worse for themselves by their actions. Anyone with common sense can see the population demographics have changed and yet the right keeps walking into the wall head first thinking they will break the wall with their head..
look, i don't have a problem with real numbers. kane already pointed out it was an overall minority vote that showed up for BO, not just blacks. Regardless, Hillary is out of the race, partly because i am confidently predicting that she can't rally that group to vote for her, like BO did. and that's just part of her problemS.

it's certainly far from a foregone conclusion that she will even win the nom. I mean look at her announcement to run, she can't even hold a press conference about it, instead driving around in a minivan and having personal meetings with hand-picked groups.
