Above is a graph depicting the results of an ABC poll from the afternoon news cast. ABC polled African Americans a.k.a Blacks and Whites a.k.a Honkeys with the question, "Is America ready for a black president?".The results of this survey were somewhat interesting in the fact that 70% of white people polled said the country is ready, meanwhile only 60% of all blacks polled said the country was ready for a black president. So what this survey really shows is in fact that black people in America feel that white people don't want a black guy as president. And it also shows that thats not true. Or it could mean that black people aren't ready for a black president. What does this mean?
I think the percentages shown by the blacks who voted is indicative of something that's subconscious, namely, stereotype threat, or maybe even self-fulfilling prophecy. Just a thought. Maybe they are ready for a black president, but just don't know it yet.
ReplyDeleteIt shows that for the good half of the country color of the skin does not matter anymore.
ReplyDeleteand the other half still sees in
black and white. Hopefully,it is smaller half. HA-HA
