It does not indicate that the next generation will be more liberal (which liberals eagerly hope for) because as each generation becomes more mature it becomes more conservative. It is just natural.<br /><br />As for the groundless racist accusation, that is a sign of desperation as in "You wouldn't dare vote out a black president!" When you can't defend his policies, you play the race card. This time, it won't work. <br /><br />I've always said that electing black president was a big step toward becoming a color-blind, post-racist society, but voting out a black president will be an even bigger step. A society is post-racist when the skin color just no longer matters.Craig Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209954891388905090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328993133397649838.post-14066321194541186642011-09-24T16:21:03.514-04:002011-09-24T16:21:03.514-04:00I like how you completely leave out the ages of th...I like how you completely leave out the ages of those in the poll. There is still a large majority of elderly, racist voters. They have hated Obama from the beginning, they will hate him during, and they will hate him after his presidency. Leaving this demographic out of your article is unprofessional at best and misleading at worst.<br /><br />I will vote for Obama in 2012. He has done a fine job, accomplishing in 3 years a significant amount of damage control from the 8 year regime that was the Bush administration.<br /><br />Fox News and other right-wing looney bins may hate Obama but their hatred is obnoxious, unfounded, and racist. We listen patiently, waiting for a sound criticism of his presidency, giving them a chance to voice their differences of opinion, only to be met with nothing but chin-wagging and hot air. <br /><br />Obama for 2012!adamryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507242842805214120noreply@blogger.com
