67. It's obvious that race is a factor in selecting a candidate for many black voters.
Whether or not that makes them "racist" is a matter of terminology.

It's also probably true that:

:-Race is a factor in selecting a candidate for many non-black voters.
:-More people support Obama over Hillary on account of race than vice versa.
:-No black candidate would have a hope in hell of the Republican nomination.
