"Black folks aren't going to vote" for a Democratic nominee not nicknamed "Bubba"
"During a November 30 discussion about politics and religion on Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club, which featured Fox News' John Gibson, host Pat Robertson stated: "[I]f you haven't got a Democratic nominee who can be called 'Bubba' [an apparent reference to former President Bill Clinton], you're not going to get him in office. You're not going to get a New England liberal, no way! Black folks aren't going to vote for people like that."
In fact, exit polling data for the 2004 presidential election indicated that of the African Americans who voted, 88 percent cast their ballots for Democratic candidate Sen. John F. Kerry (D-MA)".
It's not so much that the Republican's favorite phony preacher, Pat Robertson, would actually say something so stupid, but the fact that he and his flock of ignorant followers actually believe
it.
