Did you know that 24 % of Barack's majority vote in 2012, came from the black population and the NYTimes sees a serious problem . . . . same problem that defeated Hillary in 2016.

Did you know that 24 % of Barack's majority vote in 2012,  came from the  black population and the NYTimes sees a serious problem in this fact . . . .  same problem that defeated Hillary in 2016.  

What most people do not know:  

(1)  The black population is 14% of the nation's total population.  But only 59.8% of that population voted in 2016, down 6% from 2012.    

(2)   As hated as Trump is, in some circles,  still,  he won the white college educated vote with an on-average vote of both male and female,  combined,  of a whopping 79 %.  How many lies were we told about that number !!??  

(3)   In 2012,  Barack took in 3.5 million FEWER votes,  nationally,  than in 2008,  a clear predictor for 2016.  By comparison,  GW Bush,  took in 12 million MORE votes than in 2000.  

I am not telling you much about the NY Times article,  because you really need to read the whole thing,  here at the NY Times. It appears to be a great article.  

Study the following chart,  and you will see the very serious problems facing the Democrat Party in terms of election dynamics.
