Ok, I understand your disappointment. Now I ask you to understand the pride that those 91% must feel to finally have a candidate they can identify with, and feel pride towards. Many of them probably thought they would never, in their lifetimes, see a black candidate, who could actually become the democratic nominee, and may even become the President of the United States. Think what that must mean to black children now growing up, and how it can positively effect their lives.
Maybe in 25 years or 50 years, it will be so matter of fact to have black candiates running for President, that it won't have to be such a big deal anymore, but until then I am not surprised at all that Barack Obama pulls 91% of the black vote even up against a candidate who has been held in very high regard in the black community.
can you also understand those women who supported Hillary? That they finally had a candidate they can identify with and feel pride towards?
because I've seen a lot of slamming about the women who vote for Hillary because of that.
Of course I can understand that, I am a Hillary supporter. Feel free to check my diary and comment history to verify it. There is a lot of pride on both sides, and a lot of good people on both sides; that's why this is taking so long. However in the end there can only be one winner, it's like that in any competitive contest. Well, at least, those that can't end in ties. Nevertheless in the the end we are all one family, so in reality, to some extent, we all have won, and we all have lost. But let's never take our eyes off of why we were in this thing to begin with, and that was to win the White House.
