Hispanics historically do not have a fondness for African Americans.

(They are sub human, they are not as good as me, and etcetera)
But are the Hispanics motivated to go out and vote for Hillary? And what about the white vote?
Here's a question. What if you are a democrat who is predjudiced against women and blacks?
Are there enough white women to carry Hillary to victory?
I say no. I predict Barak Obama will sweep Texas and whether he wins in Ohio or not, this round will see Hillary Clinton's swan song.
Let's hope she bows out gracefully without an extended court fight in Florida!
Is there a Democrat out there who is still a bigot? Looking back at the issue, Hillary Clinton must get the votes in Texas to have an edge in presidential nominee...
