I don't agree with your assessment on the reason why Obama was elected. Yes, the media is out of control in the election process, but that isn't why Obama was elected.
And I hardly think that this is a scientific sampling of why so many people voted for Obama, as much as some Republicans would love to believe it. Looks to me like a bit of Republican propaganda.
No doubt some people voted for him because he is African American, but I don't believe that is "the" reason, any more than I believe the article in the Birmingham News that said that nine out of 10 Alabamians voted for McCain because he is white.

And yes, I do believe that there are a large number of Republicans that vote based on a single issue. Some of them even post here. There are almost certainly democrats that vote based on a single issue, like gun control or environmental issues.

And I don't know how you control the media in a country that allows freedom of the press. Or if we should want to. And that's one thing that scares me a bit about conservative Republicans -- they want to control things that don't suit their purpose.
