Hillary or Bernie? asked to blacks on street in NYC

Published on Apr 10, 2016
Hillary or Bernie for President? Took the camera to the heart of the NY Caribbean Community to get their views.



Youtube had this short vid as a suggestion & it caught my eye. I found it interesting, & inspiring (as a Bernie supporter). Maybe some of you will as well. Most people are paying attention out there!

He has been fighting for we the people since the 1900's

But in all seriousness I loved the interview, thanks! All of the Bernie people seemed much more articulate about why they support Bernie.

The ones who knew more were voting for Bernie. I just wish there were more of them.

when I first heard it, but I'm pretty sure she was referring to the past century, as she immediately went to the 60's

being all low-informationy like they are. If they knew what we know or the informed people in the video, they'd think a whole lot differently.

I'd like to see a woman president too. Just not a corrupt, third way(repub), oil-loving, outsourcing-loving, war for profit-loving, wall street-loving woman.

Elizabeth Warren....Oh hell, yeah. But its the very important ISSUES that matter, not gender.

Many, many years ago, I leaned Republican. Even back then (1960s), I noticed that Democrats were better informed about the issues.

That one fella that starts about 1:50 - he KNOWS what's what - As opposed to the woman before him who thinks we need a "woman" in the White House. That's not a reason - that's some blather you say cause there's a camera in your face!
