So you can't do the math.It's a simple math question. If you're incapable of making an educated guess just say so and move along.88% of how many that actually vote in a population that only represents 13% of Americans?African-Americans always give democrat presidential candidates .. including the white ones .. 88% or more of their votes .. including the white ones. :0) Yeah, I went there.
What is that vote worth today .. its the key to the White House.
Why is math so difficult for you all?
Obviously you've been vacationing on the moon for a long ass time. :0)
All one need do is listen to republicans like you whining and whining and whining about black people voting for democrats to know how important that vote is. Obviously you didn't figure that out when Romney lost.
By the way, did you know that Romney got the same percentage of the white vote as Reagan did in a landslide .. but Romney lost with it. :0) Maybe this math is over your head .. but the white share of the voting population is shrinking .. and as more non-whites vote, your share shrinks further.
.. and it isn't just blacks you have to worry about .. everybody rejects the Republican Party .. and as America continues to brown, republican power and influence will continue to wane.
Grow up old man .. it's not your world anymore.
Kiss my ass old man.
You know exactly how important the black vote is .. which is why you're crying about it.
.. and if you don't know .. who the fuck cares? :0) Blacks will be voting for the winning team .. and you'll be here whining about it.
Total number of blacks
How many aren't in prison
How many are too young to vote
How many of those remaining actually vote
Answer?
How many were all and/or any of the above when blacks went to the polls in higher percentages than whites did in 2012?
This is how stupid you are ..
The Growing Electoral Clout of Blacks Is Driven by Turnout, Not Demographics
Blacks voted at a higher rate this year than other minority groups and for the first time in history may also have voted at a higher rate than whites, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of census data, election day exit poll data and vote totals from selected cities and counties.
Unlike other minority groups whose increasing electoral muscle has been driven mainly by population growth, blacks’ rising share of the vote in the past FOUR presidential elections has been the result of rising turnout rates.
These participation milestones are notable not just in light of the long history of black disenfranchisement, but also in light of recently-enacted state voter identification laws that some critics contended would suppress turnout disproportionately among blacks and other minority groups.
As for whites, not only has their share of the eligible electorate been falling for decades, but their turnout rate appears to have declined in 2012 for the second presidential election in row.
Blacks, by contrast, have not seen their share of the population grow during this period. But their electoral clout has increased because their participation rates have risen steadily in the three presidential elections from 2000 to 2008.
The post-election survey also showed that in 2008, young blacks (18 to 29 year olds) voted at a higher rate than young whites (58% versus 52%) – a difference that was almost certainly related to the historic nature of the Obama candidacy, but that might foreshadow patterns in political engagement among the Millennial generation that could persist throughout adulthood.

That's how dumb you are. You don't know shit about politics, demographics, or voting patterns.
Kiss my ass old man. If you don't think blacks will show up at the polls .. who cares?
