Well, it's true in a way. In Bernie Sanders' ideal world, everybody would be white.

An overreaction to some lazy journalism, whose larger point was still valid.

Wow. As a non-white born and raised in Hawai'i, it amazes me to what extent people will go to defend errant media. Gotta love our system of doing things...

What is "errant" media? Joe Republic said it was an overreaction, which seems true. I'll bet not many people read that little clip and concluded that Hawaii was white.

You don't recognize that the media has been peddling the idea that Sanders' support is predominantly white? From what I've seen, the narrative has been pretty clear and pretty wrong.

Well, you'd have to be an idiot if you're a minority voting for Bernie Sanders. If Sanders wins, say hello to our old friends segregation and slavery.

Oh, I forgot, Sanders and Trump are evil racists. What was I thinking?
