In reply to the discussion: Clinton used race as a campaign tactic in 2008 - she's doing worse now [View all]bravenak
(34,648 posts)We have been discussing this since this summer. His numbers are not moving because we are still discussing it. It won't go away until addressed. It will never be addressed.
I see no intelligence in the running of this campaign by his staff. His advisors are not advising him well. They are trying to use quick gimmicks to get the black vote and then blasting it at AAs non stop crowing about how Bernie is the best for us.
Still trying to educate us.
Really. I do not know if they know how condescending and patronizing they are. Like tgey swear all we need is a white dude from vermont to fix things and give us welfare. Constantly insulting us and not even knowing or caring. Even if we say, that's insulting! They continue to 'educate' us against our will. ( One even today told me I am "running off black folks" and I told her to "prove it." Who shows up? Her mixed friend to let me know. The same mixed friend who sent me pms with her email address, which gives up her website with her blonde blue eyed white self, on du pretending to be blacker than me, just to win an argument. Very deceptive and insulting. ) They are just doing anything to win the black vote, anything besides actually be nice to black folks. Can't do that.
I am not the reason he is losing. THAT is the reason. If black voters are meeting THESE PEOPLE??? No wonder.
If the Bernie camp cannot handle one black lady in Alaska between the thousands of them, I dunno what to say yo. I am BARELY TRYING.
