Returning to comment on a post that rowens made that I must've missed previously:
How can we expect the States to be United when folks are constantly divided into 'voting blocs' (as if such 'blocs' vote the same)?
It will be interesting moving forward to see how America reacts to a female, multi-racial candidate, who is married to a non-christian, and whose step-children are of another race. Will that be the focus, or will we try to think beyond those 'blocs', and focus on policy?
