I don't see how any "feeling" person could watch this video and not vote for Bernie

You can feel the spirit within Bernie. He is NOT put-on. He is the REAL deal.
You can feel that his HEART is in it. There is NOTHING anyone could ever
say, EVER, to make me change my mind about supporting this amazing and
inspirational man, our Bernie. God bless him and his family.

Rapper Killer Mike told reporters Sunday that he ended up supporting Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders “after smoking a joint and reading his tweets.”

The hip-hop star appeared in the spin room for the Vermont senator after Sunday night’s debate.

To the question of what would make him change his mind about evolution. I think it's very sad to admit that nothing would change your mind. Not just because putting complete trust in somebody you don't know is inherently silly, but because you shut yourself off from learning if you refuse to question your own sacred cows.

DU sometimes reads like a constant stream of "I love you" letters and it is embarrassing and pointless.

Liberals usually let right wingers believe what they do, and that's OK, just don't step on my toes. Right wingers usually take the disagreement to mean that a person is "immoral" or some such thing.

When you state that no feeling person could watch it and not vote for him. There are some good and moral reasons to support Hillary Clinton. Your statement reminds me of some of the digs aimed at Bernie Supporters for being soft or indifferent to minority rights.

on this thread has anything to say about the video.

But they have clobbered the thread title, at least to their own satisfaction.



They never learn. Here is the answer to the Firewall argument, something that I regard as insulting and presumptuous in the extreme. Maybe African American voters will eventually vote for Hillary for whatever reason -- but here is the case for Sanders. What is the Hillary rebuttal?

I am interested in hearing why they think they will win the black vote. If the answer goes no deeper than quoting poll results -- I look at the actual totals in Iowa and New Hampshire, and compare them to the polls taken a month ahead of the vote, and I break into a big Berning Smile.

that the election is not in the bag for your candidate.

And you never learn that your unearned arrogance is our best asset.

And, most important, you never learn that Sanders strength comes from issues and that is the area you militantly refuse to discuss.

Keep up with the clever snarking. It will cost you the election.

What did he say that was a lie? What did anybody say on that video that was fraudulent?

You think MLK was not really fighting for economic justice rather than just against segregation?

Other than just filling up space for YOUR SIDE, do you have anything of substance to say about King, his legacy or whether and how we should carry on with his work?
