I'm hardly "blacksessed." I actually try to understand different points of view and am just not getting my hands around this one.
Personally i'm just having fun with the blacksessed thing.
The truth is black people are underinformed as voters, just like the average American, unfortunately. Compound that with social pressure to vote Dem and it's a vicious cycle.
That's an oversimplification, of course, but there it is. Working hard every year to change that. If you vote Dem, you vote Dem, but make an informed choice no matter how you cast your ballot.

Nailed it.
My answer? Remove R and D from the ballots. Period.
Make voters (to include this poster) actually know the candidates. No more straight ticket voting of sheep being herded. Know the issues and vote accordingly.
