Bernie is the one who keeps defending himself by saying "ask the black women from my campaign."

It's a baffling line.

What exactly should we be asking them? I don't know Bernie's full list of surrogates, but Nina Turner and the younger one (forgot her name) are batshit crazy. Rosario Dawson gets an honorable mention because she seems to have toned it down recently.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

It's a very demeaning and ugly thing to say. He's wrong and should say so on his biggest platform. Anon-C Feb 2020 #30

In light of her disgraceful Bloomberg accusations, you'd think she might be a bit more tempered in OnDoutside Feb 2020 #16
