audiences were essentially the same as they have been during this early run...not too diverse. Definitely no AA's front and center in that audience, a sprinkling. That's it. As is usual at his events. I think since #BlackLivesMatter and NetRoots, the BS security and handlers are a little gun shy about facing AA and wanting AA votes, or for that matter even caring about appealing to those voters.

Meh. The "minorities are all about name recognition" meme died several weeks ago. DanTex Jul 2015 #1

You probably wouldn't feel obliged to use terms like "lunatic," if everything was well.... villager Jul 2015 #2

You mean as in "Donald Trump is a lunatic"? You think that spells panic somehow? DanTex Jul 2015 #3

Sure seems to be a lot of effort on the part of yourself and others to shitbag a "non-threat" Scootaloo Jul 2015 #6

Yeah, posting on DU, it's hard work... DanTex Jul 2015 #8

Well, more effort goes into making constant OP's shitbagging Sanders, than NOT doing so. Scootaloo Jul 2015 #12

Actually, most of my posts are defending Hillary from lies and smears. DanTex Jul 2015 #54

It's not a coincidence that the guy who wrote it is a Rand Paul fan. MADem Aug 2015 #103

Wow what a come back. nm rhett o rick Jul 2015 #75

All the name-calling and denigrating belies the "no worries" they stridently insist they have villager Jul 2015 #13

If only they would expend this much effort artislife Jul 2015 #78

I like O'Malley, but you just don't see the fiery rhetoric about that candidate. Could it be his Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #98

And Hillary was a Goldwater supporter. villager Jul 2015 #14

When she was 17. This guy was supporting Rand Paul sufrommich Jul 2015 #18

She was president of college Republicans at Wellesley SwampG8r Jul 2015 #72

Where she gave it up at age 21 to become a Democrat. onehandle Aug 2015 #88

Those roots run deep. That's why she's socially liberal/fiscally conservative. Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #99

But not 16 as was claimed SwampG8r Aug 2015 #117

Don't you people ever get tired of repeating that 51 year old story? George II Aug 2015 #89

Good find. So one of the most popular Hillary-bashers on DU is a Paulite. Hmm. DanTex Jul 2015 #17

Has it ever occurred to you to respond to anything *actually in the OP*? villager Jul 2015 #20

H. A. Goodman is a DUer? bunnies Jul 2015 #21

"If Sandra Bland Were a White Woman, Statistics Show She'd Be Alive Today" villager Jul 2015 #26

Seems like when he's not talking about presidential candidates, he's not so much of a loon. DanTex Jul 2015 #32

Ah, so you just save the "loon" card for when you *personally* disagree. villager Jul 2015 #34

Hillary's evasiveness, combined with her baggage are weighing her down. jalan48 Jul 2015 #46

You see that same evasiveness in her supporters here. They can answer nothing directly. villager Jul 2015 #48

well, when you have nothing and didn't expect any real challenge ... MisterP Jul 2015 #67

H. A. Goodman, the guy who wrote that article moobu2 Jul 2015 #66

So by that definition, anyone who writes positively about Hillary is a "propagandist." Right? villager Jul 2015 #74

If all the writer wrote were articles praising Hillary Clinton moobu2 Aug 2015 #90

So we should agree then that such articles by anyone who clearly supports a given candidate... villager Aug 2015 #100
