I did, actually, though very generally because its a topic that has been documented ad naseum. Your lack of any substantive comments in this discussion is telling, though: after all, you could hardly dispute my assessment on the facts! Anyone familiar with both candidates platforms and records is well aware that…

(you may want to look at some of the pieces the Root has published about Buttigieg, specifically the race-related police dept scandal while he was Mayor)

Something like 37% of Iowa caucus-goers were first-timers, and the first-timers overwhelmingly went to Sanders. The % of caucus-goers under the age of 44 was also up by a large margin, another demographic that is overwhelmingly pro-Sanders.

No correlation between primary/caucus turnout and general election turnout, this is not a valid projection. We don’t know what turnout in 2020 will look like yet, because primary turnout is not predictive.

Buttigieg has no attackable history? Are you drunk? What an epic falsehood. 

Statistically, there is minimal correlation between primary/caucus turnout and general election turnout. So Iowa caucus turnout is not predictive of general election turnout.

or at a satellite caucus, which Bernie also dominated

Voting for Sanders in the caucus, obviously. Which is probably why he won the final alignment vote by a few thousand, and dominated among voters of color (39% of all voters of color in Iowa went for Bernie, vs. 17% for Biden).

Bernie still holding strong at #1, still the best candidate in the field by a mile. Reflective of that, he was the strongest candidate in Iowa caucus among voters of color in Iowa by a mile- 39% of all non-white voters, vs. 17% for Biden in 2nd place with that demographic. Get used to the sound of the phrase…

Omar’s such a rockstar. She needs to run for prez.

Yikes, just jumping straight for the alternative facts eh? Sanders held something like 4 times more rallies and events for Clinton than Clinton did for Obama in 2008. And remember when Hillary refused to concede the primary even after being eliminated because, after all, Obama “could be assassinated”?

Lol seriously? This is an election. This is the candidates platform on the area in question.

Except, there’s not really any credible argument that this in particular is the reason why Sanders is weak among older African-Americans: if the prominence of ones racial justice platform is key to the support of this demographic, then how to explain Joe Biden, who is significantly weaker on this issue than Sanders?

Sanders a “demagogue”- lol so weak. Feel free to elaborate on the finer points of horseshoe theory while you’re at at; I could use a good laugh.

Yeah seriously

Lol, cops, in jail, good one. Everyone knows cops don’t have responsibility for their actions. Well, provided they’re white and the victim was black, at any rate. 

They scary part is thinking about just how many more there may be, in law enforcement and the military. Unhinged white supremacists are bad enough, unhinged white supremacists with access to weapons and training is a recipe for disaster, as we’ve seen in several cases now.

To be fair, its Georgia and its the cops- they’re not exactly working with the cream of the crop here. Have to (radically) adjust your expectations. 

Yes, this. Make her VP for whoever wins the Dem nomination this year, either Bernie/Abrams or Warran/Abrams, then she can just take over in 2024 especially since Bernie will be quite geriatric at that point. DO IT

she should be governor of freakin’ Georgia right at this moment if that slimeball GOPer hadn’t rigged his own election
