    Romney gained no points with African Americans today

    By omekongo  |  Posted July 11, 2012  |  Boston, Massachusetts
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     omekongo says in his video that the way Romney went about addressing the NAACP was not the way to get more votes from the African American community. 'He's not going to get half of the black vote, but he just has to be more respectful in his tone and not disrespect President Obama -- it's just not going to work.' What do you think about Romney's speech? Weigh in with a video or text reaction of your own.
    - jne2013, CNN iReport producer

    While I respect Romney's ability to stick to his convictions, his tone at the NAACP convention was condescending. If he wants to gain more votes from the black community, he has to change his tone.
