Does Race Affect Votes?

In this Ted Talk episode was about asking ourselves if race had something to do with the fact that Obama had lost some votes around the country. Ted explained why there were people that did not support Obama because he was a black candidate and he was most likely not qualified for the job. There were white voters that didn't believe in Obama, so they voted for McCain. He also talks about how white neighbors have a hard time interacting with black neighbors. There was like a somewhat like a chart that had arrows on a white only neighborhood, while the other chart showed a mix of neighbors. Ted explained about how we all should learn how to interact with each other. I found this one interesting. And to me that is important that everybody should learn to interact with each other. No matter if you are black, white, Latino, Muslim or whatever nationality. Race is just a word that describes our background but, we should have good judgement on people. Don't judge a book by its cover.!!
