Because they are so pumped to work with Hillary if she wins? That argument makes no sense considering they have spent the last decade attacking Hillary as hard as they could, and she's still considered a safe bet to win.

Hillary isn't parading around claiming to do the impossible, now is she? Bernie was claiming the first thing he would do is appoint someone to overturn citizens united, despite the supreme court not working that way at ALL

I really don't think Bernie Sander's fans are the reason why Bernie hasn't run away with the minority vote.

they aren't helping, that's for damn sure
 
Kasich was always expected to do well in NH. He is playing the Delegate bribe game. He has basically no other infrastructure in place but put it all in NH. I mean he openly complained Iowa was too large a state to focus on so how could he focus anywhere else.

In the end he wants the NH delegates to try and buy a position in some administration. I mean he is stated to have less than 2 million dollars left in the coffers. He is a 1 and done candidiate.
Most of these guys are running on fumes, why not go all in?

You can probably make the case that he's more electable than Rubio...
 
Fucking This.

Let me spell this out for that particular junior member.

Minorities have had white politicians floating in promising them the moon since before the civil rights era, and the vast majority of said politicians are full of shit. Naturally, minority voters- especially black voters- are extremely skeptical whenever a politician says anything. Clinton gets a free pass because not only was her Husband an extremely well liked president by the black community, but she worked within the Obama administration and is widely viewed as obama's preferred candidate.

Speaking of Obama, Black Voters were skeptical of HIM as well and backed Clinton right up until Obama proved he wasn't Jesse Jackson 2.0 by getting white voters to carry him to victory in Iowa.

Bernie's entire rhetoric of "dismantle the banks", "free college", "revamp the tax structure", etc etc has been met with a resounding "oh yeah? how?" from every single minority voter I can think of, and there is not one single valid explanation as to how any of what bernie wants to do gets past a republican congress.

Until he manages to prove he's more than just talk, he's going to strike out with minorities as he has been for months. As it is, Bernie's rhetoric isn't any more realistic than Trump claiming to put up walls to keep out mexicans.
I find it hilariously ironic that some of these Bernie Supporters keep touting how Black people don't know Bernie yet, or probably uninformed...

Yet, they don't realize how terrible his policies are or have no idea how he'll get ANY of his shit through Congress.

So, who's really uninformed?
 
Now that Iowa and NH are done, shit is really going to get real. I'm really interested to see how Bernie performs in states with a demo other than white.

I made the comparison a few days ago: he's leaving home field advantage behind from here onward. And he might be like the Saints a few seasons ago whenever they'd leave the comfort of the SuperDome.
 
Hillary's speech is pretty bad imo. It feels like a checklist.
Yeah...I want to like it, but it definitely feels like just going through the motions. She is trying so hard to be passionate, and for some odd reason I just don't feel it. I dunno why....truly.
Nah, her comments about equality and racial justice are great.
I mean, yeah. But they also felt like "Let me say this thing because I know Bernie has a problem with minorities" and not so much a "I want to talk about this because I care". Which I know is BS. But it's just how I felt.
 
This condescending shitposting is getting old, we get it, Bernie is the underdog here. No need to do incessant drive-by patronizing shitposts.

Pointing out that Sanders doesn't stand much chance of clinching the nomination isn't "patronizing", it's merely stating the facts. You Bernie fans are in for a very rude awakening.

Do you honestly believe that anything Hillary wants to get done is going to get through a Republican congress?

Both Democrats have an equal chance of achieving anything beyond picking the Supreme Court Justices.
 
Yes, Hilary's speech is a boring checklist but Bernie's dogged adherence to his stump speech of "billionaires and trillionaires," is the exciting stuff of dreams...

She's not claiming to do much of anything other than continue Obama's policies--after the Democratic Party spent 6 years having their candidates try and distance themselves from Obama. Hillary's biggest proof of effectiveness is her proximity to Obama through his administration. Throw her in the oval office and watch the Republicans continue years of stonewalling everything that isn't "Repeal Obamacare" and "Burn down every Planned Parenthood".
