https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics ... f3f5bb1501The groans erupted halfway through Bernie Sanders' appearance Wednesday at a presidential candidates' forum sponsored by She the People, a group that aims to drive up voter participation among women of color.
Before an audience of about 1,700, many of them African-American and Hispanic women, the moderator asked Sanders, I-Vt., how he would handle the rise in white supremacy. Sanders spoke of fighting discrimination and running a campaign "to bring our people together around an agenda that speaks to all people" - then returned to a familiar message on universal health care.
For many in the audience, that was insufficient. "Come on!" a woman shouted from the back, as others began to jeer and boo.
Sanders gets tough reception at minority women's event, signaling challenges ahead

Very appropriate summary!
It will be interesting to see how the party responds when the final two are Sanders and Biden. Two old white guys.

Hopefully it doesn't come to that but I'm not thrilled with Sanders. I don't like his policies since I find them unrealistic. Biden needs to learn about personal space. I might have to go third party.KnotaDinghy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 10:30 amVery appropriate summary!

2 old white guys - one a socialist and one a pervert as the front runners for the Left? Sounds about right.KnotaDinghy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 10:30 amVery appropriate summary!

Do you even have a passing familiarity with the concept of irony?

I’m not sure I believe you...
Anyway if that’s true you should like the left better, right? I mean the right basically worships a dude who openly wants to f**k his daughter and looks at ten year old girls as potential romantic prospects. In fact perversion seems to be kind of a republican “thing.” You worried someone might try and step on y’all toes?
