It’s kind of annoying to see the erasure of POC who supported Bernie

A lot of commenters on here will put some Faux News style spin on Bernie and hate him with the fire of a thousand suns while putting Hillary on a fucking pedestal. There is no use trying to point out he isn’t the devil (and I don’t even agree on everything Bernie states and I think he could be a lot better on some…

nope this was the result of hillary ignoring the middle of the country and sending out people like katy perry to speak for her,

What did I say? That maybe, just maybe, people weren’t interested in a political candidate who had been anointed? That it would have been a good idea to throw the coalitions that were your base a bone by picking a progressive VP candidate, instead of the literal charisma vacuum that was Tim Kaine? That maybe, just…

Meh, Dump didn’t get any more of the white woman vote than any other GOP candidate. He actually got FEWER. White college educated women that broke traditionally GOP voted for HRC. I’m sick of people blaming the individuals that actually bothered to show up at the polls instead of the two key demographics that didn’t.

I’m assuming you are going to get tired of creating strawmen and poor arguments eventually.

Calling me sweetie to belittle me and dismiss my point, you have learned alot from those you hate.
Yes, she is dull, and that is a losing prospect for Dems. And Reps for that matter. Look back at who has won in your lifetime, it’s the more exciting candidate most of the time. Obama, Bush, Clinton, (Bush v. Dukakis…

And so? Keith Ellison is, who endorsed Bernie when no one else did and is well-positioned to be the DNC chair. Elizabeth Warren is, and she represents a brand of progressivism this party needs (shameless silence on Standing Rock aside.) Nina Turner is. Sherrod Brown is. Should I keep going? Or do I have to find more…

Or because she ran to court bush-era republicans while ignoring working-class voters which has always been a loyal DNC voting bloc, picked a VP candidate who didn’t shore up any of her strengths while reminding us all of her weaknesses, and ran a cult of personality campaign when everyone and their mother could see…

The speech was emphasizing that you can’t have one without the other. I.E. It wouldn’t be good if a queer POC CEO was outsourcing jobs left right and center, or if a Latina woman was in charge of creating oppressive stop-and-frisk policies. These things would be bad irrelevant of identity.

Bernie Sanders is tirelessly supporting #NoDAPL (fucking white male Native Ameri-bros, amirite?) while Yaaas Queen is nowhere to be found, but keep beating that stupid drum forever, I guess.

You ain’t mad? You sound mad.

White women didn’t help either:

Why bring Bernie into this, honestly?

Oh, you know, just standing up for free speech as a protester at the DAPL, but whatever, I guess.

Really? You took a speech where he said we needed politicians of every color, race, and creed to stand up for working class people of every color, race, and creed and took that to mean he was somehow trying to recruit just white men? Really?

I used Real Clear Politics. The point is that it’s a serious problem for the Dems on the state level, and beating the shit out of a popular Democrat doesn’t help.

For the love of Christ, this is not what he said. Stop implying this is what he said. I don’t know you, so I can’t say if you’re better than this. But please god, stop implying this is what he said.

Oh, and where is Saint Bernie in all this? Still sucking the dick of the precious white male vote I guess.
