I am so tired of hearing that Barack Obama can’t win over white voters. My fifty-four year old white mother voted for him for crying out loud.
Barack Obama has won 15 states that have less than a 5% African-American population.
Hawaii
Alaska
Washington
Oregon
Idaho
Utah
Colorado
Wyoming
North Dakota
Nebraska
Kansas
Minnesota
Iowa
Vermont
Maine
Of those states Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Minesota, Iowa and Maine are all possible swing states and add up to 52 electoral votes. Hillary Clinton says she can win the swing states but she certainly didn’t win those swing states.
