There are many people out here who are trying to survive the acts of hatred committed by the very sort emboldened rightwing racists represented in those Trump crowds. AND it does not follow that because people are angry, that their anger derives from the same source as those Sanders is claiming for the left. I will restate. When someone hates someone else because of the color of their skin or their gender or their sexual orientation, these are not economically based characteristics but are immutable and essential components o who the object of their hatred is.

We are about 150 years out from Emancipation and 50 years out from civil rights laws. Women were given the vote in 1920 and there are still men who believe that they have the political choices of "their" women belong to the husband. And remember, the old Dixiecrats who supported Jim Crow fled the Democratic party when Nixon promised them a haven in the Republican party, where they still reside. Do you think these people are joking when they derogatory and demeaning statements about people of color and cheer hate crimes against them? The Sanders' campaign is still missing the point it missed with the introduction of BLM into the equation months ago. The magic of Bernie's economic philosophy does not wipe away all sins.
