“He’s shown no ability (or willingness) to build broad coalitions or consensus in the party, and as much as I love his proposals, that means no way of pushing any of them forward.” 

Biden, for all his flaws, has something Hillary never had.

I CANNOT with this. This just won the internet today. We can all go home now. 

I mean you literally ignored what I said and continued on with being a condescending prick. When will you learn?

I mean, I don’t disagree. I’m terribly afraid that Biden will not do enough, whether that’s a repeat of Obama’s decision/failure to investigate and prosecute torture, or making the mistake of wasting too much time trying to work with Mitch McConnell (Charlie Brown with Lucy and the Football analogies here).

Shut it down, this covers everything I wanted to say.

Yess to alla that .and “..simply surviving to become an old Black person in the South is a revolutionary act in itself..” Yes and amen.

Except it didn’t. Sanders never expanded his base. Never even tried. In short try not writing such easily refutable bullshit.

But apart from black people, white women, moderates, rural voters, college-educated white people, suburbanites, conservative Latinos, older Latinos, the Midwest, Federal government workers, retail workers, pragmatists who prioritise winning the Presidency over ideological purity, members of the Democratic Party, party…

Bernie’s Obama ad is the height of disgusting, to have wanted the first black President to be primaried and then when the chips are down claim that you were totes besties is peak politician slime.

do you agree that black people voting for Biden is not the result of black people being ignorant?

50 Stents

Damn, son. You Bernt him so bad a whole bathtub of Chunky Monkey won’t take the heat off.

Vermont Jesus, Lord Maple From Burlington, 50 Stents - I haven’t heard some of these, but I’ll definitely be using them, thank you!

Lord Maple From Burlington. 50 Stents!!

You need to ask a better question than, “what about”. The point Tropicana is making is that the marginal voter is the one who swings elections. Sanders->Clinton voters make sense. Sanders->Trump is confusing. Delving into motivations reveals some ugly truths about that 10%. It says nothing about the 90%. 

LOL that was very sneaky Dark One! Your original post said what about the rest of the 10% and then you edited it (while I was composing and posting my response) to say what about the rest of the 100% and added the second sentence.

This piece deserves a ten minute standing ovation. I mean that Bernie interview last night was peak dude bros. Now to all you so called woke black folks ripping us “establishment low information stuck on the plantation black voters” I have some questions: After hearing Vermont Jesus last night say “Jim Clyburn and I…

Irrelevant. The difference in the vote total between Trump and Clinton was so narrow in those 3 States that if even about 40-50% of those Bernie -> Trump voters had stayed home or voted for a third party, Trump would have lost.

The fact that supporters of Bernie in the 2016 primary in the swing States (MI, WI, and PA) voted for Trump in the general election (in sufficient numbers to win the entire election for Trump) is all you need to know about this issue. How do you go from Bernie to Trump? Even if Clinton was a “centrist”, they knew that…
