Is it even measurable? I mean there's so few Black Republicans to begin with...

No, it's not measurable.  We'll never know the real answer.  That doesn't mean one can't make an educated guess.

I don't think there are enough Black Republicans for this to have any sort of impact on the race.

Of course it won't have an impact on the race.  That's not the point.  The point is that it's a fun question to ponder.

Btw, I'm also wondering how the Hispanic Republican vote will go, given the possibility of Cruz and Rubio in the race.

Obviously, Republicans tend to do poorly with Hispanics overall, yet not so poorly with Cubans specifically.  Any idea what is the number of Mexican American voters in GOP presidential primaries vs. the number of Cuban American voters in said primaries?

*bump*

Now that Carson is running second in national polls, this thread has become more relevant.  Tongue

Carson's at about 10% nationally, and a bit more than that in Iowa.  I wonder what % of the black Republican vote he's getting right now.

LOL, second?

In CNN's latest poll, he's in second place, behind Romney (or second place behind Bush if Romney doesn't run):

In the latest poll of Iowa to include him, he's in second place there as well, just 1% behind Huckabee:
