I would think that nearly all blacks are citizens, and most are of voting age. The same cannot be said for Hispanics - it's probable that somewhere between 40% and 50% are illegal and/or non-citizens, and a large chunk of the remainder are too young to vote. Steve, you're the expert on Hispanic voter turnout, what do you say?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-59362184391102866872008-01-17T15:41:00.000-08:002008-01-17T15:41:00.000-08:00What do we want from Mexico?A stable country where...What do we want from Mexico?<BR/><BR/>A stable country where the rule of law exists.<BR/><BR/>If you follow the link.

While I doubt in 8 years that the voting age population of Blacks has changed significantly, it would appear that the voting age population of Latinos (defined by the Census as Mexican or Hispanic origin) is significantly greater.<BR/><BR/>Obama raised Hillary Black voters and she saw him Hispanic ones. The smart play. There are far more Latino voters than Black voters.<BR/><BR/>Obama is not particularly smart nor does he have smart people around him who know how to win.
