Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., said that President Obama needs black voters to be more enthusiastic about voting for him this fall than they are at the moment, adding that the Democratic National Convention must revive their interest in this election.
“[T]o some degree we’ve got to go out and secure the enthusiastic support of African-Americans,” Cleaver said in Charlotte, N.C., according to Politic365. “We’ve got to have an energized Black vote. When I say energized, we’ve got to get African-Americans to the point where they’re willing to stand in line for two hours to vote . . . We’ve got to create an atmosphere of inevitability. We don’t have it yet so we’re working on it.”
