Newsvine - Analysts dismiss Cain on black support

Newsvine - Analysts dismiss Cain on black support: "Republican U.S. presidential hopeful Herman Cain's assertion that he could win over black voters is being dismissed by political analysts.

In a recent mailer sent to Iowa voters, Cain says "as a descendent of slaves I can lead the Republican party to victory by garnering a large share of the black vote, something that has not been done since Dwight Eisenhower garnered 41 percent of the black vote in 1956."

Political analysts seem to agree it is unlikely that Cain will gain a following amongst black voters, The Washington Post reported."
