I'm sure she does.

But will black voters turn out for her in record numbers like they did for Obama, the first black President?

I doubt it.

No, she does not nor the Hispanic vote. Otherwise she will be leading by 20 percentage points. Hillary's problem is that Trump supporters are sure to show up and vote since they abhor the establishment and hate Hillary. Current prediction is that the blacks and Hispanics are staying home.

the particular demographic of which we speak may unfortunately stay home, but the majority of those who do vote will likely vote for Hillary, and you can bet your ass that the campaign will do everything in it's power to get them to the polls.

So the Americans who will not vote will probably be decisive - and therefore will support Trump? I think that the campaign will become more and more nasty in the forthcoming weeks and more and more Americans will turn away in disgust.
