Best Answer

By the time Barack Obama entered politics, the national Republican party had developed a reputation for being unfriendly to minority voters, and opposing the causes that mattered to them; the Democrats, on the other hand, had the reputation of caring about the black community. Thus, it is not surprising, given those perceptions, that Barack Obama became a member of the Democratic party.
