exactly, you made my point. people
should not be impacted by "to what degree a different race supports this candidate" so yes your right, once people put their prejudices aside, which will be never, will a candidates election be based on the merit of the candidate.
65% of it is smoke and mirrors, chance and the like and its common practice, but i digress
maybe my simple mind just figured that if anything, prejudices taken into account, they would support a member of their own race, wouldn't it be a very proud day for african americans and racial equality the day a black man was elected president, arguably the most powerful person in the world, ceteris paribus?
