(11,833 posts)posts I've ever seen here at DU. Do you even read the replies to this thread, or respond to them?
LBGT and African-Americans have traditionally voted far more liberal than straight white people. Frankly, if they were in the majority of voters we'd not only have a much fairer and more equitable country, we'd also have achieved many of the things you proclaim to favor, many years ago.
Asking them whether they have Stockholm Syndrome is both homophobic and racist, in my opinion. The real question is why straight white people vote so conservative. In case you haven't noticed, they are the republican base.
I'm amazed your post made it by a jury here. And if you bother reading replies here, I think you should be ashamed of yourself for making this post, and should apologize.
If you cannot understand why some liberals might favor Clinton and some might favor O'Malley and some might favor Sanders, then you are not only not doing your proclaimed candidate any favors, but you need to educate yourself on African American and LBGT history.
