As the US presidential campaign enters its final weeks, both the Republican and Democratic candidates are hitting the swing states.

But misconceptions and rumours abound and many voters have their facts about the candidates all wrong. Some believe that Democrat Barack Obama is a Muslim, for instance.

Casey Kauffman talked to some Republican supporters after a rally by Sarah Palin, the Republican vice-presidential candidate, in Ohio.

  • @BlackRepublican2010 - You RepubliKLANS are suffering from something commonly known as "selective memory." Black unemployment is not an anamoly - the same thing held true during the Bush administration as did record deficits. When "W" was in office, Black unemployment was steady at 10.6%. This was before he outsourced 50% of American jobs overseas. The majority going to China. It's obvious that it would increase once Obama took office - the seed had already been planted. STFU!

  • Further, during Reagan's helm at the coveted Commander and Chief position, Black unemployment was at a staggering 20%. But, alas, I'm sure that's conveniently stored in the very recesses of your mind as well. Lol, thanks for the chuckle - I needed it.
