Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumHow to frame a discussion. "They" say Clinton has only won red states. Or maybe... (HRC Group)
Bernie has only won states where less than 8% of the population is black.
Now, Clinton has already won Iowa, Nevada and Massachusetts. So guess which statement is actually factually true.
And if in the next week, Bernie manages to win in NE, KS, and/or ME...guess which statement is STILL true.
Frame the discussion anyway you want. But the fact remains there is no indication Bernie can carry anything resembling a diverse state.
"Confederate" states only, my ass. "They" don't get to claim they're the only true face of our party.
... Sorry, I might have reached my limit with this bullshit.

(11,619 posts)Democrats are choosing the Democratic Party Standard bearer, not competing to get votes from all voters.

I really can't wait for this to be mathematically and irrefutably sewed up.

(31,170 posts)I am not even bothering to answer it. In my experience, real Dems don't write off Dems in any part of the country. We may need to work harder in some places to turn more voters, but we don't disparage Dems that are waging those battles.
