Let me make this Pellucidly Clear

18. I think the fact that Obama got...

reelected in a way really drove them around the bend.

My personal theory is that in some weird way at least some thought - ok, Obama got elected: it's a
fluke.

But when he got relected...
The "audacity"!!!!!

Besides just about all Afro-Americans & Afro-Carribean, and most other POC, (but then) plus a fair amount of White people were willing to re-elect him...

Well!
