Why Clinton is, unfortunately, beating Sanders on race [View all]

Its no longer silly season. This presidential contest is now in mondo bizarro mode, where almost nothing makes sense, particularly black adulation for the Clintons.
In the days before the South Carolina Republican primary, a black minister stood in front of a battalion of Donald Trump supporters and became an oracle. He told the mostly white audience that Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders wont make it to the White House because, I know youre going to make sure we elected a man who believes in the name of Jesus Christ.
Trump, whose advocacy for building walls drew a rebuke from Pope Francis, told the same audience about the tragically high unemployment rate for black people, specifically young black men. He blamed President Barack Obama.
Amen, someone cried out.
Hearing that must have been a gut punch to Sanders, who has largely failed in his efforts to woo black voters. Even when hes talking to a black audience about income inequality, Sanders manages more cringe-worthy moments than a Larry David comedy.
