Sanders’ supporters hated John Kerry. That’s why Kerry didn’t win Ohio.
Sanders’ supporters now falling for the Republican line on impeachment wanting Biden to suspend his campaign during the Senate trial.
I don’t think Biden should suspend his campaign. I want him and his supporters to defend his record.
It’s everyone’s fault but the actual candidate’s. What a garbage way to rationalize the Democratic establishment picking losers.
I mean, a mildly progressive Howard Dean was disqualified for yelling. The establishment tore him to pieces over it.
How old are you? I’m 66.
It’s very hard to put a positive spin on this, but lets see if anyone can do it. If anyone thinks I’m picking on Biden, remember, this would all come out during the general election. Address it now. Otherwise Trump eats Biden’s lunch.
Biden said in 1977 that desegregation would create '''a racial jungle''' - Business Insider
This is your candidate. Are you ready to vote for him?
Yeah. That much was included in the text.The subject was racial integration in schools.
That makes it sound like the issue was the use of the word "jungle" rather than w/e the plan he was advocating.There are elements of animalizing black people in the statement. It’s just as mess of racist tropes and segregationist rhetoric. He references that this ‘racial jungle’ would impact all of society.
I looked up the term ‘Hillarize’, used by Linc. Apparently it’s coming directly from Team Biden, who is trying to foster a division among progressives.
So much for unity.
Unfortunately it is true that Biden, like Hillary, loves to commit unforced errors. He needs the black vote, and says these stupidities in an interview published today by the NYT:
Joe Biden Doubles Down On A Racist Myth About Black Parents
The Dems are doing their best to lose the election, like in 2016.
Sanders is against comprehensive immigration reform
takes dirty money from Wall Street; takes money from the NRA. I see you didn’t respond to Sanders taking $10,000 from HillPAC.
Sanders is a regressive.
Using a poster’s name without quoting them is very poor form, Dans La Lune. Many posters at DP, not necessarily me, might call it chicken**** and cowardly.
Criticizing that poster within your post is typical of the sleazy, passive aggressive behavior of Bernie Sanders and his cult.
In all my searches
I’ve never read anyone accusing Sanders of UNITY. Sanders and his team think they’re holier than R’s and D’s.
They have no loyalty to Democrats. Sanders and his punk supporters think they pass a purity test that R’s and D’s don’t.
You haven’t voted for the Democratic candidate for President since and including 2000.
I have never actually seen this speech. OMG. Joe Biden is an existential threat to defeating Donald Trump.
I’m doing my level best to prevent it. If Biden is the nominee, it will be a razor thin election. With Bernie it would be a landslide in his favour. Bernie is basically the frontrunner now and he’s growing in strength, not waning.
Democrats for some reason don't seem to like Sanders. I hope he gets the primary, I will vote for him. Otherwise...I will likely vote for Trump again...keep burning it down until the message is truly received.
Despite what the DNC wants, America does not want more of the same. Sanders promises to not be that.
What if its burned to the ground?
Context is helpful. At the time, many Americans, Black and white, felt crime was out of control. The crime bill had support from most of the Black Caucus. Politically, white workung class voters were abandoning the Democratic Party. Republicans would not vote to add aid to the crime bill, so pushing this was a no brainer.
The difference now is that while in retrospect, while Democrats recognize the harm it did, Republicans don't have a problem with more of it.
