I quite agree with you! He’s a nice man, a good politician, and his particular brand of latter day hippie populism goes a long way with the kind of liberal voter who feels that we aren’t nearly cosmopolitan enough. But christ, throwing a Vietnam conscientious objector who honeymooned in the USSR and who apparently…

So we revile it now for obvious, obvious reasons, but at the time basically everyone thought that crime bill legislation was a super good idea. You basically can’t find a Democrat who didn’t vote for it.

It looks contentious if you look at the for/against numbers in the voting record, but that’s because the Republicans…

Here are FiveThirtyEight.com’s predictions for the primaries coming up through March. Someone tell me how any of this is good for Bernie? (Note: These are odds of winning the primary, not voting percentages.)

This is the real issue. It’s becoming a question of simple mathematics. And Sanders has been almost completely unable to convince black voters to throw their lot in with him, which is how he’s lost every Southern state so far (and he’s projected to lose Florida, as well, although there’s time for that to change).

for fuck’s sake the crime bill was backed by a significant portion of black officials and communities at the time. to think it was the clintons and the clintons alone who created mass incarceration—which was increasing at the same rate before and after the clinton administration—is just ignorant. which isn’t to say…

She didn’t vote for that legislation (she wasn't a politician). Sanders did.

Not really unexpected, he was favored to win at all the sportsbooks i have seen.

But really he gains what anther 20 delegates with this, and will be down 800 by the time the night is over?

Weirdly, Clinton actually does better among working class voters as a whole, which is why she’s swept the Southern states which are generally the hardest hit economically. Additionally, she has a stronger majority with women. These numbers are certainly bolstered by her major lead with black voters, but that’s not…

“Bernie Sanders? Well, I don’t agree with his socialism but he had a hell of a career at Oklahoma State.”

Prosecutor: “Now Mr. Pierre-Paul, is the man who tweeted your medical records in the courtroom today?”

Honest question, what about Black groups speaking out against violence against Asians? I’ll never forget the NYTimes article where Black teens killed a Chinese food deliveryman and they were interviewed saying that robbing Chinese people was sport because they don’t fight back. Do you think that racism in the Black…

i’m 4th gen Asian American, people who tell me i’m not embracing my culture enough or whatever can go fuck themselves. i only speak English, i didn’t grow up with other Asians other than family, and quite frankly i can’t identify with most other Asians at all, i have almost nothing in common with them. Not to mention,…
