Strong Racial Polarization in Obama Re-election.

A new CNN poll has some disturbing news for President Obama, his approval numbers demonstrate strong racial polarization.  61 percent of whites disapprove of Obama and 67 percent of non-whites approve.  There are many many reasons this is happening, many of which I cover in my book.  But there is also a sense of buyer’s remorse among many independents who were willing to give Obama, marketed as a moderate, a chance.  The moderate cloak was discarded and a extremist was revealed.  The saddest part of these numbers is they prove what many have suspected for some time – we certainly haven’t entered a post-racial era.  The contrary may be true.
