It looks to me as though white Democratic presidential candidates generally have an extremely difficult time connecting with African-Americans, unless they really make an effort, the way Clinton did. The lines of communication just aren't there. OTOH, African-Americans seem to end up voting for the Dem candidate in the actual election, which may explain why most white candidates are so apathetic about opening up those lines.
