Leon, don't know where you got your numbers, but CNN breaks it down as follows by race:

White (74% of voters) OBAMA 43% MCCAIN 55%
African-American (13% of voters) OBAMA 95% MCCAIN 4%
Latino (8% of voters) OBAMA 66% MCCAIN 32%
Asian (2% of voters) OBAMA 61% MCCAIN 35%
Other (3% of voters) OBAMA 65% MCCAIN 31%

So you can see Obama won all races except white, and convincingly at that. Kerry won over 80% of the black vote in 2004, and Kerry is pretty damn white. If you give Obama Kerry's numbers for black voters, he still wins.
