I can explain that.

Areas with high numbers of "minorities" are heavily subsidized. Yet "minorities" don't vote in anywhere near the numbers honkies do.  It's not compulosry like it is in Australia.

Honkies in these states see the exorbitant amount of funding going to minorities in their vicinity, while they get nothing...or worse than nothing. 

So, the fed-up honkies vote for the party that...well...doesn't oppose these gibsmedats, but at least doesn't make it their central platform. 

Alabama - Obama v McCain 2008.

1) Take a wild guess where the majority of welfare is paid and unemployment is highest.

2) Take a wild guess which symbolizes the Obama blue....

See what I mean Darkhall?
The very people who are the laziest and the most criminal and receive the most welfare also buck the trend in the rest of the good state of Alabama.

The truth? Of the 46 million people living in poverty in America in 2010, the U.S. census revealed that 31 million were white. Ten million were black. Of the 49 million people without health insurance coverage, 37 million were white; 8 million were African American. Latinos of every race and Asian Americans represented the remaining largest ethnic groups.

The face of poverty in America is overwhelmingly white, but as sociologist and professor William O'Hare explains in a 2009 study on children in poverty, the white American poor, especially those in rural areas, are "forgotten."

So What Do the Numbers Tell Us About Poverty?

White Americans, poor and middle-class alike, receive the vast majority of tax-funded government assistance programs, from monthly assistance to Social Security to food stamps.

TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), the program that provides aid to single mothers, is the most well-known welfare program, but the truth is that Social Security and Medicare are also social welfare services, funded by tax dollars. To that end, nearly 70 percent of all benefits of these programs go to white people. In fact, since African Americans have lower life expectancy, many work and pay into the Social Security and Medicare programs through their tax dollars, only to have white Americans, who have a longer life expectancy, benefit from the income they've left behind.

Non-Hispanic White
196,817,552[

Of the 46 million people living in poverty in America in 2010, the U.S. census revealed that 31 million were white. Ten million were black.

42,020,743[1] (13.6% of the US population)

if your numbers are correct then that would mean that the other 5 million americans living in poverty are hispanic/asian/native american, which at the time of the 2010 census comprised 22% of the population or so. discounting other groups, hispanic americans are 16% of the population and have significantly lower than average incomes than white americans (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Race_Income.png/300px-Race_Income.png). it's highly impluasible that 'hispanic americans' have not been lumped in with 'white americans' (as they frequently are) in your measure there.

The US Census declared that in 2010 15.1% of the general population lived in poverty:[30]
9.9% of all non-Hispanic white persons
12.1% of all Asian persons
26.6% of all Hispanic persons (of any race) (though hispanics may identify as white as well as hispanic, the vast majority are mestizo/amerind)
27.4% of all black persons.

according to this, if 26.6% of hispanics are in poverty, then 13 million (from 50 million) or so are in poverty. and yet your numbers say that they should comprise less or only 5 million of america's poor, if no asians/pacific islanders/native americans in america are poor at all.

lame.

The more I hear from Mitt Romney, the more I see an Obama win.

The Israelis want the USA to invade Iran..good luck with that one
