why would it appear to you, or anyone who isn't a bigot, to make a blanket statement about people of which they know nothing? In fact, several groups. Black people generalizing about white people as some monolithic entity would be bigotted, too, and I regularly call out people who do so. You never have shown the first clue about what the Democratic Party in the US stands for, consists of or has attempted to do, but the reference you made to them was tangental, since it was predicated upon utter nonsense. I'd call it a lie, but it isn't because you wrote the words: "i'd say it appears....", for which one could easily substitute with: "Blinded by ignorance, all I see is...."

Tell me something slick, why would anyone in their right mind continually vote a party into power that has done nothing for them in the past 50 years and now actively works against them....dare I say by putting them to the back of the bus?

because they've seen MASSIVE gains, both tangible and not(nominating and electing a black man President is a massive intangible that I've come to find that white folks, myself included, cannot grasp the scope of). Your narrative is driven by ideology, not any real plan to help anyone. While the Dems try, the GOP returns, time and again, to trickle on your head economics. We are now well on the way to a perfect demo of why that theory isn't worth squat to the working poor, and unemployed. Really, what you should be wondering is why any sane working white person should have been voting for the GOP.

So just to be clear, black people are easily led by the nose? That's what you are saying, right?
That's what I said. Now give me your best shot.
Now, what is it about black people that make them more gullible than, let's say, Asians or Hispanics/Latinos who also heavily vote Democratic?

Well white people also vote heavily Democratic, those groups you mentioned are not “locked” in to a particular party, as the Hispanic turnout for Bush proves.
I personally don’t believe blacks are any more gullible than any other group, but the Democratic Party has gone out of its way to lock in the black vote. (with lies mostly, but that’s just my opinion)

what is ironic is that 3 friends of mine, NONE of them coming close to considering Trump, got tickets and attended(also interviewing the attendees whilst there). All were white.

This is one of the things I find fascinating about The Don's candidacy. Right now he has, what, 34% support among US voters? I think there is a good chance the number is much less. Like we have discussed before, there are a lot of people who support Trump in a troll-like, contrarian fashion and will not vote for him. What a spectacle. There is nothing to compare it to.

From the same place you liked, woodhead.
Note: Shaded gray area indicates the race is too close to call.
Realclearpolitics (another one of your used sources) pin Clinton at 47%, trump at 41.3
