I personally believe one of the bigger reasons Obama won was because he had help for the new generation..

Those who just turned 18 and otherwise wouldn't care to vote for "some old un-cool guy to be president".

However, this time around they see then younger Black guy as a candidate and with the huge hiphop influence nowadays they automatically Dubb this Black candidate as "cool" and "hip" without even knowing what policies he supports or any of that stuff.

Just like multitudes of Black people voted for him just because he was black..

How do I know this?
Because you can go out and ask a handful of black people who voted for him what policies they agreed with Obama about for them to want to vote for him and I guarantee you 8 out of 10 won't have a clue of what your talking about..

Not to mention MTV and BET were BOTH going balls out encouraging people to vote when in previous years the focus wasn't even 1/10 as much as it was for this one.

Basically you can thank the young people and mostly minorities for electing this moron into office. I'm not saying white people didn't vote for them because I know plenty did but the majority wasn't.

I'm not trying to give off a racism vibe because surely a few people everywhere are QUICK to call you racist if you speak about black people and are not black, i'm just speaking facts.
