Morgan freeman unmistakable tone can be heard. Fighting racism in alabama schools and registering latino voters in texas. All a pitch before the nevada caucuses and tomorrows South Carolina primary. In the race for the white house the africanamerican vote is a critical piece of the puzzle. Black voters turned out in 2008 and 2012. And it made a major difference. Without barack obama on the ticket will we see a shift on who gets the all important black votele heres jeff vaughn. Clear if any of the president ial candidates can court africanamerican vote as barack obama did in 2008. Its going to be very challenging for candidate to decide who you want to vote for whether its republican or democrat. This moment represent a tremendous political opportunity. Because its like different segments of the black community, actually forced to kind of figure out what black people want and theyre kind of going heads up against one another.

Eisenhower garnered 39 of the African American vote more than any other president ial candidate since the 1930s. If theres a shift this year, political analysts say it will be within the Democratic Party with Bernie Sanders peeling off stanch support from Hillary Clintons africanamerican voter base. Is it possible that African American vote could switch enough s that Bernie Sanders could win the nomination i think the answer is yes. Black turnout isnt a lot. Just as white evangelical turnout isnt a lot, they have to be mobilized. The political report found they accounted for president obamas entire margin of victory in 7 states. Including florida and ohio. In the 2012 election. In washington, im jeff vaughn reporting. The whole process begins tomorrow. Next week. Then it really doesnt stop.
