No Blacks voted for Obama because he was a Democrat, just like every other Democrat in the last forty years. The Republican myth system demands an explanation of why they failed. They for some odd reason chose to claim it was they didn't think to run a black candidate.
It is just their usual nonsense to claim an inexperienced black Republican, by virtue of being black would get the black vote.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
