Why Barack Obama as a black leader could not take the votes of black people?

Barack Obama could not gain the votes of black people although he is also black. How Hillary Clinton achieved sympathy of the blacks? How is her attitude towards them ?

1. What are you talking about?! Obama has gotten 90% of the black vote (in some states)! Look it up! Obama had the majority of black votes in EVERY state that has voted so far. AND the majority of people voting for Hilary are middle-aged white women.
2. sympahty who ask for it?!!!!!!!
3. Correction:The blacks have sympathy towards Hillary.She has to pay for here own motel room.How sad.I don't think she likes anyone but herself.
4. Because she as been lobbying for blacks for years. Obama just enter the picture so we know nothing about him.
5. Obama has like 90% of the black vote. Hillary used to have the black vote but after she constantly belittled Obama based on race, it turned black voters off. She and are surrogates have called Obama "just lucky", a "fairy-tale", and even compared him to Jesse Jackson as to race-bait. Hillary will stoop to any level to win.
6. As all white people are not the same, all black people are not the same.
7. Since when is Barack Obama a "black leader"? He is a United States Senator who represents all races in his state.
8. Funny, I hear he's winning anywhere from 70-90% of the black vote in every contest starting on Super Tuesday. The only blacks voting for Hillary are those that still believe - incredibly - that the sometimes wife of the first "Black President" is somehow in their corner. Believe me when I tell you that she would throw them all under the bus if that would win her the nomination - and she might do it yet...
9. i agree with reka
10. Not sure what you're reading. Obama has huge support from blacks.
11. I think you are misinformed. Barack has captured a significant portion (around 90%) of the black vote. A lot of blacks have been turned off by Hillary and her campaign for attributed comments that were perceived as being somewhat racist.
12. Bill was labeled as the "First Black President of the USA" which I think carried Hillary but emotions are still strong with some of the black voters.
13. black leaders are salivating thinking of the new give-aways they'll get $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
14. It's clearly also a matter of gender: Obama got 85% of the black male vote and only 25% of the black female vote---most black women vote for Hillary Clinton....
15. You listed no sources. How do you expect any one to take what you say seriously?? Go Hilary
16. He is the antichrist. She is not. They that are not in the obama trance sense his pure evil!!!
17. I don't know where you got your info, but it is VERY incorrect. Check again!
18. Sorry...it's a matter of rhetoric that you've got wrong."Eighty to ninety percent of black Democrats voted for Barack Obama. That doesn't make Obama "The Black Candidate", that makes him "The Candidate Blacks Support". Just as blacks supported Bill Clinton." There's a difference...a big difference.
