When a black candidate is running, black turnout in primaries increases. Black voters made up 25 percent of the Democratic primary electorate in 2016 without a black candidate.
More importantly, they make up a large part of several early southern state voters. Clinton lost whites to Bernie Sanders 48% - 50%, but won black voters by 77% to 22%. She also won the primary.
Any black credible candidate will win blacks by more than 77%, as Obama did. No white candidate will ever win against a credible black candidate again. If Oprah runs, her real competition will be Harris, Booker, or Patrick. I can imagine those candidates will step aside and wait for a VP nod. |
It's pretty pathetic people vote on someone just because of the color of something they are born with. It's completely moronic. It's by far the most superficial, irrelevant and dumb 'reason' ever to vote on someone.
