Mt. Carmel video...everything else is over the top...I mean, they can't possibly think that a headline like this would convince me to vote for Sanders or even try to advocate on his behalf (since my primary is after Super Tuesday, that's possibly where I might be of more help).

7. Well, since you asked

"A few" black voters in this video plan on voting for Bernie Sanders (more precisely, one person in this video, Nina Turner, DID drop Clinton for Sanders). Is that what you call a trend.

I think Rev. Whitfield in Iowa is a nice get but...again, I see no sign that it's a trend...the OP headline suggests that there is this massive conversion of black voters from Clinton to Sanders.

AAs preferring Bernie? It seems strange to me. Maybe this is a demographic that the Clinton campaign needs in order to win? The condescension and sheer meanness I saw here last night just blew me away.

What did the Clintons do for Black people during their term -- three strikes you are incarcerated for life, cut to social security and the list goes on and on.

It is your choice now, vote for the person who walked the walk with MLK and now he is going to represent you. Mr. Sanders is not working for only the middle class, he is working really hard for the working class too. When did anyone else seeking your vote, looking to uplift working class people?
