I've said all along that if Obama does what he promised and turns things around and makes the country better, then I'm all for him.

However, how many people voted for him just because he was a minority or because he was a Democrat?

Case in point- they were interviewing college students (they looked college age) outside of the innauguration and they asked an African-American student male who looked in his late teens or early 20s, and he gave a very nice response about immigration. After that, they asked an African-American female about the same age, and she said "um......" started thinking for a few seconds and couldn't come up with anything, so the reporter quickly just moved on, and the next guy couldn't think of anything either, and finally, on a third student, a girl just basically repeated what the first male said.

So, back to the first question: how many people just refused to vote for a Republican and voted uneducated about the issues? How many people just saw Obama as a minority and saw it as minorities gaining power and voted for Obama while they were uneducated about the issues?
