Cain’s assertion that he could win over black voters is dismissed by analysts - The Washington Post
Senile jackass ought to just stop, I don't care about what he says about whites but don't be retarded.
Herman Cains turn atop the polls in the contest for the Republican presidential nomination captured the attention of journalists and pundits and sparked excitement among grass-roots conservative activists. But is it really possible that he a black man who overcame poverty in the segregated South to become a wealthy entrepreneur and front-runner in the GOP race would be the one to bring African American voters back to their original political home?
Cain seems to think so. In a mailer sent to Iowa voters recently, the candidate says as a descendent of slaves I can lead the Republican party to victory by garnering a large share of the black vote, something that has not been done since Dwight Eisenhower garnered 41 percent of the black vote in 1956.
It is a proposition that was quickly dismissed by political scholars and analysts, including some members of Cains party. Although he has done better than any other black Republican presidential candidate in terms of attracting support, few believe Cain could snare a sizable number of black voters in a general election, especially against President Obama.
If hes talking about 41 percent of black voters in the Republican primary, he might be right, Michael Dawson, an African American political science professor at the University of Chicago, said with a chuckle. But in a general election against President Obama, who got 95 percent of the black vote in 2008 and remains popular among African Americans, Dawson said Cain would be lucky to get 10 percent of the black vote.
Besides being remarkable for its optimistic electoral calculation, Cains claim is unusual because he has made no special effort to appeal directly to black voters. If anything, the candidate has offended and outraged some of them with some of his comments and behavior.
