When what kid? Posting articles that are unflattering to your man-crush?

No, posting articles from the Daily Beast that has proven to be biased against Sanders is a bit of hackery on your part. Vermont is strongly supportive of Sanders and his favorable's aren't dropping because of an establishment story like this.

I truly believe Sanders doesn't actually care about the problems in the AA community...

and Clinton does?

No I do not, but let's agree on something, the AA community has been marginalized for way too long, it allowed groups like BLM and others to sprout from all this.

The BLM movement was created because of all the recent police brutality against blacks. It just pointed out that hey black lives matter too. They are tired of there sons going out to the street and getting shot by the police disproportionately compared to whites.

I actually do believe that Clinton cares deeply about the racial inequalities that persist in our society, and that her record of helping the disadvantaged, especially children living in poverty, shows her dedication to helping people of color. Let's not pretend that her education reforms in Arkansas or the Children's Health Insurance Program didn't disproportionately help black children. Honestly, I don't know how you could look at Clinton and say that she simply doesn't care; her entire career screams otherwise.

What about after Arkansas? How about the 90s when Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton both lobbied for the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act which was essentially the three strikes bill. During Clinton's Presidency African Americans got increasingly incarcerated compared to any other president. Not to mention Hillary calling blacks "Super Predators". It just shows she is another bought politician that will pander to whatever is popular at the moment.

Yea, here's a montage of Bernie paying no mind to issues facing the black community.

[snip]

And according to the U.S. Census, there are roughly 3,500 black people in Vermont as of 2010, living in possibly the most progressive state in the country.  What exactly did you want him to do to "reach out" beyond being on the right side of just about every issue?  

This is getting a little ugly, but you knew it was coming.  I'm just glad the wink-wink-Jew card isn't being thrown around and rather it just some strawman argument that making income inequality a theme means you are inherently ignorant of other issues.

All of this is irrelevant as Sanders does not support reparations. It was never about civil rights. Bernie could have literally cradled MLK in his arms as King died and it wouldn't matter to these people.

Does Hillary support reparations? Has this ever been asked to her? Also this post is quite sickening this is becoming a center right establishment forum. This is a silly thread of course Bernie cares about the AA community.

Pictures don't mean a thing, especially considering that there have been a few pictures placing Sanders where he was never at, like in Selma and leading a sit in at a college. The lies and misrepresentations being floated are only making things worse for Sanders.

You sir are a liar.

Well, usually you posting an article kind of discredits its credibility and neutrality right off the bat.

Gotta love that avatar.  I'm cool with Indy avatars who clearly support one side, but I think you keep it to give you some type of credibility/not reveal your bias right away.

Difference Is I admit my bias. Landslide Lyndon, Ebsy and Invisible Obama are all Hillary hacks with no Hillary symbols to seem as though they are non-bias even though they are the biggest hacks on the forum.

And you're the most annoying Bernie hack here. What's your point?

I know I'm very annoying I defend my candidate how dare I.

PC, you're becoming hysterical right now...calm down.

I'm pretty sure it was you who attacked me first.

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if Lyndon is some kind of computer program designed to post negative articles about Sanders and make excuses about polls showing Sanders doing well. People make big deals about Berniebots, but Sanders hate is quite literally the only thing I have ever seen Lyndon do on this forum.

It's the second time in a few minutes that you post the same thing. It seems to me that you're a bot.

Anybody who's spent more than a few minutes on this forum can confirm that I'm not a bot, due to the fact that I actually do things other than hate on Hillary Clinton. On the other hand, Sanders hate is the only thing you ever do.

Agreed. As much as i disagree with you your not a bot.

I wonder why ProgressiveCanadian is so obsessed with Sanders.  Shouldn't he be shilling for his fellow Canadian, Ted Cruz?

He has a thing for 74 year old upstate Jewish men.

Better then Trump for your side which you must be very happy about.

Immigration, mass incarceration, etc.
Heck, he was asked about racism at the last debate and he started talking about tax breaks for millionaires, again.

To get those policies through you have to deal with the corruption in politics first and work to get money out of politics and overturn citizens united. Until that happens literally nothing will get done in Washington.
