Sanders' problem is that he comes off as incredibly tone-deaf about race. He often associates minorities, whether intentional or not, with poverty and crime...despite the fact that the majority of minorities (including the black/latino population) are in the middle-class and don't have criminal records. He also gets frustrated/flustered and shies away from openly discussing racial issues. He's certainly a champion of the poor, but again, it doesn't mean poor = minorities. That's his downfall...he consistently links the two.
It's a really off-putting, and ultimately campaign-killing, trait of his. For all her faults, at least Clinton will openly discuss race. And I think she generally understands the issues more than Sanders.
Tripp...where do you get your talking points?
Sanders fought for equal rights while Hillary was helping Rupublicans (she said she was always a democrat...that is a lie).
Hillary, and her husband, helped put more super predators...er...Blacks in jail than ever before. She helped rip apart a generation of black families.
Hillary previously criticized Obama's policies, plans, and actions...and many insiders say that Obama does not care too much for Hillary.
But, is is a marriage of convenience.
Hillary doesn't understand race issues more than Bernie...why don't you lay out the legislation that she has put forth to help Black people?
Hillary does have an understanding of how to manipulate Black people.
That is true. She has some smart people working for her that tell her exactly what to say. Her people in her inner circle, mainly White, by the way, know exactly how dumb most Black voters are because Hillary's peeps know Bernie is the better candidate for minorities. The sales job of Hillary as the Black's best candidate is one of the biggest con jobs of all time. Hillary's people have used sound bites over substance, and easily pulled the wool over Black's people's eyes.
The interesting part is that Bernie was winning over the young college folks, including some Blacks. They, internet savvy, have done the research into Hillary's past. It is the older, less likely to do research, Black voters, mainly women, that told their people to get in line and vote for Hillary.
So yeah, you are part of the ignorant masses voter category. You fall for sound bites given to you by the establishment media.
Trump hates all Mexicans. Trump hates all Muslins and wants to ban them all. Trump is a racist. Bernie is an out of touch old man who hasn't done squat for minorities. Obama is great...he is doing a marvelous job...just ask those millions of refugees (has to be Bush's fault, right).
Hillary knows minorities and likes them..and has fought hard for them.
Congrats! You're an idiot.
