I haven't kept up with pilitics, but my hunch is that Obama got the "race vote" and the "anti-republican vote" along with the sincere votes, and thats why he won.

I don;t think those are the only reasons he won
Sure a lot of black people voted for him because some of them would prefer a black president
But a whole lot of white people would have voted against him for the same reason; Skin colour

The anti-republican vote though does make sense
I think change is needed
In any direction, change is needed

I don't see America improving anytime soon.
Every country seem to think that they own this dirt & water covered sphere called Earth.
Until everbody realizes that we share this place, I don't think much good can be achieved.

Not in America, & not anywhere else.
