Illinois Sen. Barack Obama recently asserted that he would put red states in play because of the impact he would have in bringing out black voters.
David Bositis, senior political analyst at the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, a think tank in Washington that focuses on blacks and politics, talks with Robert Siegel about the potential impact of a black candidate on black voter turnout in the upcoming presidential race. |

His purpose in this race is to bring out the Black voters--just like Jesse Jackson in the 80's.

Will blacks come out to vote if Obama doesn't run? They may boycott the polls if he's not the Dems standard bearer. Will Hillary bring out the woman's vote. I don't think she will. Folks either lover her or hate her. |
