@jbouie While Clintons worked to regain Black trust by supporting POTUS, Sanders called for primary & elevated Black Obama-bashers as VIPs.

Sanders needs to ask McAuliffe how he even had a sniffing chance of becoming governor of VA. Black Democratic women voters put him in office

The continuous dismissal of Black voters is what irks a lot of people about Sanders. A base the Democratic party needs on every level.
Ugh.

To have a Democratic candidate for POTUS so casually dismiss a voting group that shows up for the party every time is infuriating.

(11,552 posts)Soon European-Americans will be a minority in the U.S. The majority of the population could adopt the narrative that "they don't really understand who they are voting for" (like Ted Devine implied) based on the obvious self interest of way too many cranky old white guys like Bernie Sanders. I wonder how he would like them apples!
Cha
(296,800 posts)It's wrong and it's horrendously insulting.
We've seen how well it goes over here on DU.. an Epic Fail.. one high profiler even got banned for sticking to his "Stockholm Syndrome" insistence.
But, here's the heads of the BS team pushing the same damn thing.. wth do they hope to accomplish?! Besides driving more AAs away from them?
Well, if they want to be that stupid.. have at it. I just don't like them insulting my friends and all the precious AA voters we have that are helping us so much with our Democracy.

Cha
(296,800 posts)He's dissing the Southern vote for Hillary which is predominantly Black voters.. but there are African American voters all over our Country and whether BS knows it or not he is driving them away, too.
His insinuation that the Southern states votes don't count as much is both stupid and insulting.

(31,170 posts)It's not than Bernie is just tone deaf, he is truly clueless about anything not centred around his core interests. And even there, we see it's just concepts and not plans.
Cha
(296,800 posts)Why is he dismissing Hillary's Southern Votes who are predominantly Black voters and not dismissing the Red states where he won?
Mahalo Lucinda~
Lucinda
(31,170 posts)They view "non-believers" as corrupted or as someone that needs education, or management. If you don't see the world their way, you are simply wrong.
For some reason he thought northern black voters would be all in for him. And that, in itself if very telling. I think he is very bigoted agaisnt the South, not so much in a racist way, but in thinking southerners as a whole, are not as smart as everyone else.

They might have said something to sanders like the comment under the tweets in the OP, LS..
Ask him why he thinks his votes in those Red states are more important than Hillary's in the Southern states?
They basically have let BS go on an on with his Hogwash. There have been the occasional pushbacks.. I heard some pundit yesterday said that sanders got more Pinocchios last week than delegates.
Thank you!

Thank you for, BlueCali.. Hillary's decided BS isn't worth her time now.. she'll get him @the debate.
BlueCaliDem
(15,438 posts)of the word "qualified".
Knowing that he can't possibly win the Democratic Party nom now, he's decided he's going to do as much damage to the Democratic Party before he's finally forced to bow out. Clearly, this run was nothing but an ego-trip for him.

LOL@BS.. Now he's tellling SL that he has a "friendly relationship with PBO"..
http://www.democraticunderground.com/110794650
So BS is in Brooklyn trying to suck up to President Obama because he's finally figured out how popular he is when all he's done is diss him during his Presidency and out on the campaign trail.. him and his genius surrogates.
Now what is that called?
Press' book, which is out a day after the Iowa caucuses on February 2, is about "the many ways President Obama has failed to live up to either his promises or his progressive potential," according to promotional materials.
If a voter has a choice between a republican that hates Obama and a democrat that does not fully support President Obama...The republican will win every time

He knows he's trying to destroy the Dem party, too.. so they accused Hillary of it. It's right out of he GOP playbook 101.
He's lashing out wants to change the subject from his disastrous interview with the NYDN and their calling out his horrible record on sensible gun laws.

And, that's not all.. There's Sierra Blanca, the Minute Men issue.. It's never ending with BS.. and the thing is.. he sets himself up to be perfect so he's a hypocrite and a disingenuous wannabe who's not to be trusted on anything.

(15,438 posts)ugly things in BS' past, too many to remember, and GOP-friendly press and teevee are still not vetting him.
My god, I'll be so happy when Hillary wins NY, PA, and MD and boots his disingenuous behind to the curb. I hope, sincerely hope, that President Obama and VP Biden then come out and endorse her and put a stop to Sanders' damaging our Party, their Party, and everything they worked so hard for.
I also hope Hillary will bring up his lack of transparency about his tax filings during the debate. I'm so sick and tired that he's being given a pass on those while he continues to spittle-shout that she should release the transcripts.

NastyRiffraff
(12,448 posts)Excellent Tweets, thanks for posting, Cha. Sanders is tone-deaf regarding AAs. I don't think he sees his comments as racist, but his opinion doesn't count; the AAs' opinions do.
At my job, we had to take a course on harassment. The takeaway was that it doesn't matter that you think your little joke is funny, it's what the person it's aimed at thinks of it. If it's unwelcome, it's harassment.
If it's insulting to AAs, it's racist.
DemonGoddess
(4,640 posts)I so agree with the tweets. His dismissal of the votes because of where they happened is racist. You know, there are so many people who feel discouraged about voting at all in these areas, what if they all came out and voted? Potentially we could see some flipping to blue. But, if one continues to disparage the votes in these areas because they are currently so red, that's just stupid.
CalvinballPro
(1,019 posts)...associated with this behavior. I'm sure they didn't set out to promote a white progressive movement or to denigrate black voters.
But then I remember that they all have every chance to denounce this behavior, and they choose not to. They are apparently fine with any behavior, in nomine Bernie. Having their candidate win trumps their morality, in other words.
So screw 'em, they're no better than the bigots they're standing side-by-side with to support Sadners.
