I'm sure this nuance would be easily messaged. Maybe he should say "He was for the bailouts before he was against it"

The issue was that Hillary said he was opposed to bailing out the auto industry which is patently false.

Obama energized huge demographics that lean D but generally don't turn up to vote like no other candidate in recent history; he was the first Presidential candidate (if not President) for progressives since Carter and the first Presidential candidate for black voters ever.

Yet Clinton may eclipse his vote total for 2012.

Clinton should run for governor of California if she isn't done with politics yet. People do love her there apparently.

I bet it's back to the paid speech circuit for her though.

She got 94% of black women and 82% of black men. Trump got 32% of latinos but only 25% of Latinas. Maybe misogyny had something to do with this? Maybe that's what you mean when you say she was a terrible candidate?

Clinton performed better with women than men, period, so I'm not sure why you're insisting on reading it as 'minority men are misogynists' and not 'women, in general, liked hillary more (but still not enough).'

Because he brought it up on reply to a post about how Trump gained a small amount of minority voters over Romney. The context was already about minority voters, not voters in general.

That's the part that people are whole cloth making up, yes. I don't think he said anything particularly racist, but at least 2 people have accused him of blaming minorities for Trumps win, completely baselessly. That's what you just tried to defend. Maybe you should work on reading gooder.

Right, because she's a woman, not because she's a warhawk and a sellout to corporate interests.

But hey, i voted for her, i guess that makes me less "sexist" than those minority men you keep blaming.

This is incredibly misleading. Trump won 13% of black men, and around 30% of Hispanics (though the numbers are still not quite assured there, its still the second showing for Hispanics ever since people started measuring it).

Black men voted Hillary more than any other demographic. It was about turnout.

EDIT: What I'm saying is, this is on my pale brothers.

would like to see this evidence, because there's been published evidence that more often than not they respond to their wealthy constituents' policy preferences, with the poor and middle class being afterthoughts
David Mayhew's The Electoral Connection, or more recently, Constituents’ Responses to Congressional Roll-Call Voting by Ansolabehere and Jones.

I am also aware of the literature you refer to, like Martin Gilen's Affluence and Influence, and it's good, but less well-established and more controversial from a methodological perspective than the above. The issue is that there is a high degree of correlation between the views of the rich and poor and due to multicollinearity it's hard to integrate the preferences of high and low income earners into a regression model. There is also a high degree of skepticism among low-income voters that the plans from the left to help them will actually work, and at the end of the day many of them would rather just keep their tax money.

e: Of course there's a lot more lit out there than what I've cited about responsiveness, which is on the whole kind of a controversial subject and more difficult to prove causally than you might expect. Would be happy to send other article/book recs on the subject over PM.
