Support NeoGAF

[Mesousa]

In 2008, in the primary, she won the Working Class vote. And Obama won the the Upper Middle Class vote. That is not a dog whistle. It is a fact.

She knew exactly what she said by saying that. It was clearly race politics.

She was able to play off of white voters in 08. I'll never forget the "Working Americans vote for me" jibe she aimed towards black support going towards Barack. Dog whistle for days, which is why I was not heart broken when Trump beat her. She was horrible.

Should... should we tell him?

Well that's nice for you. Meanwhile one of the stupidest and most venal racists in history won the presidency and is actually trying to dismantle American success. But hey good for you the email lady got hers.

She got out dog whistled by the dog whistler.

Thats neither here nor there though. The fact of the matter is Tylercrat felt more impressed by her 2008 campaign because she was able to throw those buzzwords out and get a response. It failed against Barack, despite it making her look more successful. Lived by the sword, and died by it.

White washing history again, Jaywalking Mike pushed that bullshit.

Listen to Marissa Jenae Johnson, one of the women that did it.

When they got on stage both times he wondered off.

Putting up a webpage is one thing, actually talking to folks is another.

To be fair this was during the southern part of the primary, the part where Bernie optted out

My point re: what that webpage is and how it ties to The Big Disruption is actually right there in the interview if you actually listen to it. Which I just wasted time doing. Marissa specifically said she wanted all the Democratic candidates to know that they should expect to get disrupted by BLM until they put forth specific policies to address the concerns of the BLM platform. Bernie produced this and was praised for it by BLM at the time. It's okay that it didn't impress you, but I don't think I'm "whitewashing history" to say that he was respectful and responsive and Hillary is the one who escorted BLM out of the room. In fact, I think it would be whitewashing to excuse the Clintons and their welfare reforming, crime-bill signing, globalist, superpredator-fearing ways.

OK. Feel free to create a new thread when there's an update to this story. In the meantime there's no need to rehash the 2016 primaries. And certainly not the 2008 primaries.
