First of all, stop this propaganda that Obama won something important. He won:
- caucuses, which are notoriously anti-democratic, just read this:
from http://electoral-vote.com/...
"Obama did especially well in Idaho, Kansas, and Alaska. Whut? Yes, Idaho, Kansas, and Alaska. One of the big questions of this election has been the role of identity politics. Would white people vote for a black man, for example. Well, Idaho, Kansas, and Alaska are full of white people. In fact, they have very few minorities of any kind (except the Eskimos in Alaska). What gives?
The secret is in the asterisk. Notice the little asterisks in Obama's top five states. An asterisk today denotes a caucus state. Obama did extremely well in caucus states and Clinton did very badly in them. How come? Turnout in caucus states is always low, usually about 10-20% of the electorate. Only highly motivated people bother to show up, especially the Democratic caucuses, which go on for hours and people have to publicly defend their choice.
Obama has a smaller, but extremely active and loyal following, especially among younger voters. These are precisely the people who can swing a caucus state by showing up in droves and working hard to convince the other voters that Obama would make a great President. In primary states, the media, especially TV ads have a much bigger influence. Now it becomes clear why Obama won North Dakota but Clinton won Oklahoma, a demographically similar state in the same part of the country: North Dakota had a caucus and Oklahome had a primary."
- states he won will go mostly for McCain in November:
Alabama, Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Luisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Utah etc.
- Hillary won real primaries and popular vote. Based on results,
we know that up to 84% potential pro-democratic voters participated in primaries (see CA primaries for example), and only 8% to 14% of potential pro-democratic voters participated in Caucuses. All this blowout virories 81-17 or 68-32 %
in caucuses is just plain BS because they ruling out at least 70% of other voters who really will not participate in Caucuses. Caucuses is the way to suppress voters, hijack nomination and produce fake nominee.
- Hillary won in Florida and Michigan which is very important for November. Florida and Michigan represents at least 8.5% of population!
Delegates from these 2 states have to be seated, if you want legitimate nominee.
- Summary: Obama won home state, states with large black vote and caucuses. He got support from independents who will vote McCain in November and they voted for Obama just to help McCain.
- It is clear now that Obama got racially motivated support in SC, GA, AL, LA etc. In 2004 all these states went to GOP and I don't see why 2008 will be different.
- Democrats need candidate who will win CA, NY, FL, NJ, MI, MA, AR, TN, OK - therefore they need Hillary. It is very easy to comprehend.
If Democrats are stupid enough to nominate Obama, we will get GOP president again.
