[@mdk] ethnicities shun their own members for voting a certain way - it's the pillarization all over again. It's very undemocratic in my eyes.

Eh, I figure it's not my place to tell anyone how they're SUPPOSED to feel about anyone. The black vote (insofar as there can be said to BE a "black vote") has gone Democrat for a loooooooong time, and the black community in [i]general[/i] is much more knit together than the white one at least, probably most others as well. If Kanye's announcement shocks people from that community, that's their prerogative, and I wouldn't ever call it "undemocratic." 

[i]That said....[/i] it's not something I admire in another person, either. The whole concept of 'shunning' is ugly no matter where it's coming from. Just possibly, nonstop seething from the media brings this out in people. *shrug*. My point being.... idunno, let's not be dramatic, I guess? It's Kanye.
