Black professionals are investing in Obama in a manner never seen before. When Jesse Jackson ran for president, there were fewer blacks in the professions and many did not see Jackson as a viable candidate.
BET.com users give Obama edge in debate
BET or Black Entertainment Television is the only nationwide African American television service. An online poll by BET.com found that most users thought Obama won the first presidential debate in South Carolina:
"In a BET.com users' poll, about 66 percent of you picked the Illinois Democrat as your favorite. U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), the only female candidate, finished in second place with 28 percent of the vote. Sen. John Edwards (D-N.C.), came in third with 2 percent of the vote."
