10. That Is One Way To Look At It...
But another person who was on C-Span this AM, named Omar (forgot his last name) also said that he felt that we are only garnering 2/3rd's of their vote, when in the past it was much higher. At least 90% most of the time. So there must be SOMETHING going on.

I do feel we need to reach out to them MUCH MUCH more and not take them for granted, because I think we HAVE done that. From what I see going on with the "D" side of the aisle, the white people can't even get our Rep's to stand up for us either. One BIG fear that may actually come to fore, is that they won't EVEN VOTE AT ALL!

I remember before the election when I approached many minorities, they basically told me they either didn't know WHO they were going to vote for AND some others just said they didn't care and weren't going to vote. So there is a danger here and I think WE need to find a way to reach out to them. And I don't think Howard Dean can do this alone!
