Barack Obama is drawing more support from white voters than any Democratic presidential nominee since Jimmy Carter in 1976, according to a Politico analysis of recent Gallup and Pew Research Center polling. Obama is positioned to win 44 percent of non-Hispanic white voters, the highest share for a Democrat since Carter carried 47 percent of the white vote in his White House victory three decades ago, according to Politico. Bill Clinton was supported by 43 percent of white voters in 1996, including 38 percent of white men. Until recently, polls had show Obama's support among white voters around 35 percent, Politico reported. One reasons he has been able to increase that number is he is taking support from one of John McCain's most reliable demographic groups: white men. And in just the last week, Obama's support among white voters jumped five points to 43 percent, Politico found. Lyndon Johnson is the last Democrat to win a majority of white voters. By contrast, John McCain is drawing between 48 percent to 50 percent of support from white voters in recent weeks, which would be the lowest share for a GOP candidate in a two-man race since Barry Goldwater.

Law Enforcement Against Prohibition "Corporation: An entity created for the legal protection of its human parasites, whose sole purpose is profit and self-perpetuation." © IndieTx Only the election will tell the truth... MSM will not be able to distort the figures. Mainly white states and white areas will tell if the white race is suicidal or not. The Kennedys, Nixons and Eisenhowers are for show, we white trash will either not vote or vote for race the same as the blacks. It will all be there to see when the dust settles.
This poll indicates to me, that given really lousy choices, little factual background information regarding the candidates, dumbed down whites will vote for an extremist, marxist muslim negroe. Or at least the voting machines will make it appear that way. I should add that these whites probably have good intentions and are reacting in opposition to the present administration. Collapse of this government is looking like the only way out !
There is no honor in bending one's knee to the banking elites that are robbing the children you claim to love of their future. Soon they'll convince those very same children that you deserve to be eliminated ... and they may be right.
