The questions were asked: what do you think the small red line next to the big blue line is for OVER the "Democrats" marker represents? And what is Blue line next to large red line represent OVER "Republican" represent? the lines over democrat represent support AMONGST democrats --(trump is represented, according to the legend, in red) --(clinton is represented, according to the legend, in blue) the small red line over democrat is democrats supporting trump the big blue line over democrats is democrats supporting Clinton the lines over republican represent support amongst republicans --(trump is represented, according to the legend, in red) --(clinton is represented, according to the legend, in blue) the blue line over republican represents republicans supporting Clinton the large red line over republican represents republicans supporting Trump we would expect the blue line(clinton) to be larger than red in the democrat comparison we would expect the red line(trump) to be larger than the blue in the republican comparison AND THEY ARE however, cross party representation is reflected by the clinton color(blue) over republicans and by the trump color(red) over democrats the red democrat (Democrats supporting trump) is SMALLER than the the blue republican(republicans supporting Trump)

Again, Blacks are 13% or less of the vote so the size of the line means little in comparison to the overall total in reality. So any part of it that votes Trump takes away a fairly large chunk of that vote

These show the crossover to Trump. It is much less in the last poll but still Trump has small edge

Anyway..these polls change daily, weekly etc. The point of OP isn't about Dems or Reps switching but the movement of Blacks from the democrat party and supporting Trump. I certainly don't expect Trump to get a majority of the Black vote but there is a movement underway by Diamond&Silk and the Black Christian Community to support Trump and we'll see how far it goes over the next few months

there is no movement blacks have never voted 100 percent for a candidate I never implied Blacks voted 100% for any candidate(close with Obama) and what I meant as "a movement" is a real grassroots push from Christian Blacks and others to get people to stop supporting the very party that made institutional racism in America.

Admittedly, there wasn't a lot of different media and social networks back then so maybe there was such a push and never saw it. I guess we can both keep an eye on this and see what pans out....

The co founder of BLM blasted both Clintons in a recent article with Bloomberg Claims they use black people for nothing other then votes and they do not do anything for the black community. Not a very flattering article... not at all. she didn't exactly endorse Trump either

Not a very flattering article... not at all. she didn't exactly endorse Trump either Trump was never mentioned.. at all. A long article too.. seems she has a lot to say about the Clintons Pretty nasty stuff.. Lol _________________________________________________________________ Anyway, here is a fraction of the statement: The leader of the Black Lives Matter movement recently said in an interview that the Clintons use the black community as a way to garner more votes. Alicia Garza, the founder of Blacks Lives Matter, discussed the Black Lives Matter movement and “systematic racism” in America with Bloomberg Businessweek. In her interview, she claimed that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton does not back up her claims that she cares for the black community. Hisslary has only one cause,and that cause is herself!

Besides African American churches that endorse Trump there are many Blacks that "get it". We seem to think that "most" hold same views as the liberal left in these threads. So here is a great example of someone who "gets It". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdHYhwU35Jg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPChn4_KgDU You might want to watch his other video's...spot on!

I pity anyone who believed all black people voted or thought the same still, most eligible black voters are NOT supporting Trump
