Here Is Your Minority Report

Supporters of Obama at a rally on election night  (Brian Cassella, Chicago Tribune / November 2012)

Today the LA Times talked about nonwhite voters being the key in this year's presidential election.  They said even though President Obama carried strategic ideas on his campaign road, like Bill Clinton at the Democratic Convention, these were not all the things that brought him back to the White House.  This election year had some of the highest votes from young voters and other minorities living in America.  According to exit polls Latinos and Asians both gave over 70 percent of their votes, and Blacks gave over 90 percent.  The minorities of America counted in a big way in this presidential election, in which their voice was a pivotal part of it.

The NY Times focused on budget again today discussing Obama's new budget plan for America.  President Obama is looking towards another path for the economy, much different than his approach in 2011.  "Every president learns lessons from their successes and failures, and President Obama is no different," said Obama's communications director, Dan Pfeiffer.  Obama will meet with Congress later this week to discuss higher taxes on the wealthy and raising the nation's debt limit.

Meanwhile, The Washington Post did not update their website today.  Their focus was still on Mitt Romney's life after the big presidential election defeat.
