Tancredo is known primarily for his stance on stopping illegal immigration. IMO he is referring to illegal immigrants in his statements. However, I disagree that this is what got Obama into office.

Megan also makes a poor assumption on literacy and race. One could contend that if high school drop out rates are an indication of literacy rates in the overall population then whites (74% of the vote) would lose 3.5 votes for every black vote lost due to a literacy test.

I think it’s time to put down the race-card … it gets used way too often.

You know…. I’m sorry I just stare and I stare at “3.5” and I keep seeing it as “3/5”…….

Probably not your fault….
