This has me wondering, if Bernie were to run for the Democratic nomination in 2020, could he do significantly better with Black voters?

I think it's quite possible. The crowd really supported him by the looks of it.

Good move in the Midwest, not that great in Mississippi where a vote would go down in flames

Solidarity crosses state lines.


And thankfully for electoral politics, so do news stories and the Internet. Showing up for workers in one place will help you everywhere.

Just that labor costs are far less of a factor than they once were. Tax breaks and looser regulation were at least as important as having a nonunion workforce to Nissan in deciding where to put a plant.

foreign companies don't care as much about unions than do US inhabitants.

the even cheaper countries, like mexico, are unionzed to much bigger margins.
